Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Schwarzenberg (German States) is that it features an image of Ferdinand William Eusebius, the ruling prince of the principality at the time of its minting in 1696. The coin's design was meant to promote the prince's image and reinforce his authority, which was a common practice among rulers of the time.
