Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Thaler - Frederick William of Weilburg (Pattern) 1812 from Principality of Nassau-Weilburg (Nassau-Weilburg, German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1812, just a few years after the Napoleonic Wars had ended, and it reflects the efforts of the Principality of Nassau-Weilburg to establish its own currency and assert its independence in the region. The coin's design, which features an image of Frederick William of Weilburg on one side and a crowned shield on the other, symbolizes the principality's aspirations for independence and self-governance. Despite its historical significance, the coin is relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors today.
