Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it was used as a means of payment for the troops of the Swedish army during the Thirty Years' War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648. The coin's silver content and standardized design made it a reliable and widely accepted form of currency throughout Europe during this time.
