Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Ferdinand I (Hall) 1528 coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in the Austrian Empire. The coin was issued in 1528, just a few years after the death of Maximilian I, who had ruled the empire for over 40 years. This period saw a lot of political and religious turmoil, including the Protestant Reformation and the resulting conflicts between Catholic and Protestant states. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, making it a fascinating piece for collectors and history enthusiasts.
