Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler 1793-1796 from Free imperial city of Frankfurt (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.06 g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the period of the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on trade and commerce in the region. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used and trusted form of currency throughout the German States, and its design and mintage continued to be overseen by the Frankfurt mint.
