Comment
Although it is not what is described for these types in davenport and Krause the only ones of these years have the date split by the coat of arms and not at the end of the reverse legend.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Bayreuth is that it features an image of the margrave, Christian, on one side, and the coat of arms of the margraviate on the other. This coin was minted during Christian's reign from 1627 to 1631 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States.
