Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Schwarzenberg (German States) is that it features a unique blend of both Catholic and Protestant imagery on its reverse side. The coin's reverse depicts a double-headed eagle, which is a common symbol of the Holy Roman Empire, but it also features the Protestant motto "In God We Trust" (in German: "In Gott Vertrauen") above the eagle's head. This blending of religious symbols reflects the complex religious landscape of the German States during the 17th century and highlights the coin's cultural and historical significance.
