Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Bayreuth is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "C" and "B" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Christian, Margrave of Brandenburg" (German: "Christian, Markgraf von Brandenburg"). This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate the ruler's name and title, and it can be found on many coins issued during Christian's reign (1605-1655).
