Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features a unique design element - a small image of a skull at the bottom of the reverse side. This macabre detail was added as a reminder of the transience of life and the inevitability of death, a common motif in art and symbolism during the Baroque period.
