Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Transylvania is that it features an image of Charles III, who was the Prince of Transylvania and the King of Hungary, on one side, and the Transylvanian coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during Charles III's reign from 1713 to 1715 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the region. The use of silver in the coin's composition adds to its historical significance and value, as silver was a highly valued metal at the time.
