Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Abbey of Gorze (French States) was minted during the reign of Charles IV (1608-1630) and features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the abbey on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighs 26.56 grams. What's interesting about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place during Charles IV's reign. Despite the conflict, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and detail, showcasing the skill of the mint masters and engravers of the time.
