Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from County of Tyrol (Austrian States) made of Silver weighing 28.77g is that it was minted during the reign of Ferdinand Charles, who was the Archduke of Austria and the Count of Tyrol from 1632 to 1662. This coin was issued as a standard circulation coin during his rule, and it features an image of the archduke on one side and the Tyrolean coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a common practice during this time period, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
