Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the County of Oldenburg is that it features an image of Anthony Günter, the Count of Oldenburg, on one side, and the coat of arms of the county on the other. This coin was minted during Günter's reign from 1619 to 1622 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States.
