Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Hamelin (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.52g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Emperor Charles V, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1530 to 1558. This coin was issued during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and it is a testament to the city's economic and political importance during that period.
