Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Ferdinand II (Breslau) 1632 coin is that it features an image of the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II on one side and the coat of arms of Breslau (now Wrocław, Poland) on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place during Ferdinand II's reign. Despite the conflict, the coin's silver content and the authority of the Royal Mint of Silesia made it a reliable and valuable form of currency.
