Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler 1710 coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical depiction of a coat of arms or a monarch, the coin features a representation of the city of Lübeck's harbor, complete with ships and buildings. This design was meant to symbolize the city's importance as a major trading hub in the Baltic region.
