Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Charles VI (Graz) 1713-1718 coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Austrian Empire. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles VI, who was the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Austria, and it was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the empire. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not as valuable as other coins minted during this time period, such as the 10 Thaler coin, which was made of gold. However, the 1 Thaler coin was still widely used and remains a popular collector's item today due to its historical significance and rarity.
