Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Prussia (German States) made of Silver weighing 29.17g is that it was minted during the reign of Frederick I, also known as Frederick the Great, who was a highly influential and enlightened monarch. He ruled Prussia from 1740 to 1786 and implemented many reforms, including the creation of a modernized coinage system, which led to the minting of this coin.
