Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features an image of Charles I, who was the ruling duke of the principality from 1735 to 1775. The coin was minted during his reign and bears his likeness on one side, while the other side features the coat of arms of the principality. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, highly sought after by numismatists and historians interested in the history of the German states.
