Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin to signify the value of the coin, as it was believed that the hole represented the "soul" of the coin, and that the coin was worthless without it. This design element was a distinct feature of coins from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach and set them apart from other coins of the time.
