Slg. Noss 255Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler - Frederick IV 1610 from Electors of the Palatinate (Palatinate, German States) made of Silver is that it features an image of Frederick IV, who was the Elector Palatine at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Palatinate on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region, and its design reflects the influences of the Renaissance and the Reformation. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the previous copper coins, and it marked a shift towards the use of more valuable metals in coinage.
