Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features an image of Ferdinand III, who was the Holy Roman Emperor at the time, on one side, and the Bohemian coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War taking place from 1618 to 1648, and it is a testament to the enduring power of the Bohemian kingdom during this period.
