Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Bogislaw XIV 1628 coin from Duchy of Pomerania-Stettin (German States) is that it features a unique combination of Christian and pagan symbols. The obverse side of the coin depicts Bogislaw XIV, the Duke of Pomerania, dressed in armor and holding a sword, while the reverse side features the Pomeranian coat of arms, which includes a griffin and a swan, symbols of the region's history and culture. This blending of religious and secular symbols reflects the complex cultural and political landscape of the time.
