Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Hannover is that it features an image of King Ernest Augustus, who was the king of Hanover from 1837 until his death in 1851. He was a member of the House of Hanover, a royal dynasty that ruled the United Kingdom and Hanover from 1714 to 1901. The coin's design was created by the engraver Carl Friedrich Voigt, who was a prominent artist and medalist of the time.
