Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach, minted in 1628 during the reign of Frederick V, features an image of the ruler on horseback, surrounded by an ornate border. What's interesting is that this coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The Thaler was a widely used denomination across many German states, and the coin's design and mintage were overseen by the Margraviate's mint master, Johann Philipp von Hattorf. Despite being minted over 400 years ago, some of these coins still exist today and are highly sought after by collectors.
