Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Austrian Empire, minted between 1811 and 1815 during the reign of Francis I, is that it was one of the first coins to feature a standardized design across different regions within the empire. Prior to this, coins from different regions often had unique designs, making it difficult to standardize currency across the empire. The 1 Thaler coin, made of silver (.833) and weighing 28.06g, featured a standardized design that included the emperor's portrait on one side and the imperial eagle on the other. This standardization helped to facilitate trade and commerce across the empire.
