Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Electors of the Palatinate, minted in 1592 during the reign of Frederick IV, features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin inscription "FREDERICUS IV D G R PALATINUS" contains a typo, with the letter "G" appearing twice. This error was not corrected in subsequent mintings, making it a unique feature of this particular coin.
