Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler 1746 coin from Schwäbisch Hall features an image of the Roman goddess of wisdom, Minerva, on its obverse side. This was a common motif on coins from this region during the 18th century, as Minerva was seen as a symbol of wisdom, strength, and prosperity. The inclusion of Minerva on the coin may have been intended to convey the idea that the city of Schwäbisch Hall was a place of wisdom, culture, and prosperity.
