Comment
KM# mentions only 1623 for this type with beaded circle on obverse.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Austrian Empire, minted between 1623 and 1624, is that it was made of silver, specifically the 90% silver standard, which was a common composition for coins during that time period.
