Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the joint coinage of Hohenlohe (German States) is that it features a unique combination of two portraits on its obverse side. The coin depicts both Charles VII, the Holy Roman Emperor, and Philip Ernest, the Count of Hohenlohe, in a double portrait design. This unusual design was used to symbolize the unity and cooperation between the two rulers and their territories.
