Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Ratzeburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "R" in the center, which stands for Ratzeburg. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the time and makes it easily recognizable to collectors and historians.
