R.: 6Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Transylvania, issued during the reign of Charles III (1721-1734), features an interesting design element - a unique coat of arms on the reverse side. The coat of arms depicts the symbols of the three nations that made up the Principality - the Hungarian, Romanian, and Saxon communities. This design was meant to represent the unity and diversity of the region and its people.
