Comment

1 Thaler = 30 Groschen = 360 Pfennig

From 1833 onwards, the different workshop markings are slightly larger.
The dot behind XIV disappears from 1832.

The 1828 vintage is a one-off. Ten pieces were struck, nine of which were recast (cf. Schrötter). Olding notes, however, that other examples appeared over time.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

1 Thaler = 30 Groschen = 360 Pfennig

Le différent d'atelier est légèrement plus grand à partir de 1833.
Le point derrière XIV disparait à partir de 1832.

Le millésime 1828 est une pièce unique. Dix pièces furent frappées dont neuf refondues (cf Schrötter). Olding note cependant que d'autres exemplaires ont fait leur apparition au fil du temps.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Prussia (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick William III, who was the King of Prussia from 1828 to 1840. During his reign, Prussia underwent significant industrialization and modernization, which led to an increase in trade and commerce. The 1 Thaler coin, made of silver, was a widely used denomination during this time and was an important part of the Prussian economy.
