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 placed there by the mint master to signify the coin's authenticity and to prevent counterfeiting. This feature is known as a "Münzmeisterzeichen" or "mint master's mark" and was a common practice in the minting of coins during that time period.
