Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Stolberg-Stolberg, minted between 1719 and 1734, features an intricate design on its reverse side. The design depicts a crowned eagle with outstretched wings, holding a shield with the coat of arms of the County of Stolberg-Stolberg. The eagle is surrounded by a wreath of leaves and berries, adding to the coin's ornate appearance. This design was a common motif in German coinage during the early modern period and symbolized the power and authority of the ruling dynasty.
