Comment
Hippmann 421 Aa, Holzm. 88Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from Counts of Sprinzenstein (Austrian States) made of Silver weighing 28.91g is that it features an image of Francis Ignaz, the Count of Sprinzenstein, on one side, and the Austrian coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted in 1705 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the Austrian States during that time.
