Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from Brandenburg-Prussia, minted in 1692 during the reign of Frederick III, features an image of the king on horseback on one side and the coat of arms of the state on the other. This coin was significant because it was the first time that a German state had issued a standardized coin that was accepted across different regions, paving the way for the modern currency system in Germany.
