Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Albrecht von Wallenstein 1626 coin is that it features an image of Albrecht von Wallenstein, a prominent military leader and politician during the Thirty Years' War, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Friedland on the other. This coin was minted during Wallenstein's rule as the Duke of Friedland, a title he received in 1625 from the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand II. The coin's design and the use of silver as its material reflect the wealth and power of Wallenstein and the Duchy of Friedland during that time.
