Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The reign of Ernest August (1695-1697) saw significant reforms in the mining industry, which led to an increase in silver production and the introduction of new coinage. This coin, the 1 Thaler, was one of the new coins introduced during this period and was used widely in trade and commerce. Its silver content and intricate design made it a valuable and sought-after coin, both within the German States and beyond.
