Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc, minted in 1701 during the reign of Charles III Joseph of Lorraine, is that it was made of silver, which was a valuable and highly sought-after metal at the time. The use of silver in coinage was a symbol of the wealth and power of the Kingdom of Bohemia, and the fact that this coin was minted in such a small quantity makes it a rare and highly sought-after collector's item today.
