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, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and a depiction of the Wolfenbüttel Castle on the other. This coin was minted in 1776 and was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the power and wealth of the Principality, and it was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the region.
