Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features an image of Charles William Frederick, the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, on one side, and an image of the Brandenburg-Ansbach coat of arms on the other. The coat of arms includes the motto "Virtue and Right" (German: "Tugend und Recht"), which reflects the values that the Margraviate was founded upon. This coin was minted in 1746 and made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time.
