Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Einbeck (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.78g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), a conflict that devastated much of Europe and had significant impacts on the economy and currency of the time. Despite the war, the coin still maintained a high level of craftsmanship and design, featuring an intricate depiction of the city's coat of arms on one side and the image of a crowned eagle on the other. This coin serves as a testament to the resilience and craftsmanship of the people of Einbeck during a time of great turmoil.
