Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from County of Mansfeld-Bornstedt is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "C.A." (Charles Adam) on the reverse side, which was a personal mark of the Count Charles Adam, the ruler of the county at the time the coin was minted. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
