Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Hannover is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued during the reign of Ernest August, who was the King of Hanover from 1837 until his death in 1851. During his reign, the German states, including Hanover, were in the process of transitioning from a feudal system to a more modern, industrialized economy. This change is reflected in the coin's design, which features an image of Ernest August on one side and an image of a mining scene on the other. The coin's silver content and weight also reflect the importance of mining and trade in the region during this time.
