Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the City of Magdeburg (German States) was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Augsburg Interim, which was a temporary currency standard established in 1549, aimed to stabilize the currency system in the Holy Roman Empire. The 1 Thaler coin was one of the first coins to be minted under this standard, and it was used widely in trade and commerce throughout the region. Despite its historical significance, the coin is relatively rare today and is highly sought after by collectors.
