Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Thaler - Charles William Frederick (Gold pattern strike; Falkentaler) ND (1753) from Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Europe. The coin was minted in 1753, just a few years before the Seven Years' War, which was a global conflict that involved many European powers and had a profound impact on the political and economic landscape of the continent. Despite this turmoil, the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, such as the Pattern 1 Thaler. This coin is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Brandenburg-Ansbach during a time of great uncertainty.
