Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Bogislaw XIV 1633 coin from Duchy of Pomerania-Stettin (German States) is that it features an image of a griffin on its reverse side. The griffin is a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, and it was often used in heraldry as a symbol of strength and protection. The inclusion of this image on the coin may have been intended to convey the idea of the duchy's strength and prosperity.
