Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from County of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Virneburg is that it features an image of Frederick Louis, the ruling count of the county, on one side, and an image of the Virgin Mary on the other. This reflects the religious and political influences of the time, and highlights the importance of both secular and religious leaders in the German States during the 18th century.
