Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin featuring Albrecht von Wallenstein is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a profound impact on the region and the coinage of the time. The Duchy of Friedland, where the coin was minted, was a small territory in the Kingdom of Bohemia that was established by Wallenstein himself, who was a powerful military leader and statesman. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the enduring legacy of Albrecht von Wallenstein.
