Mule of reverse of KM# 171 with reverse of KM# 172.Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Stolberg-Stolberg, minted in 1719, features a unique design element - a crowned eagle on the reverse side. This eagle is not only a symbol of power and authority but also represents the unity of the two branches of the Stolberg family, who ruled the county together. The coin's design was meant to signify the strength and stability of the Stolberg dynasty, which had a long history of governance in the region.
