Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach, minted in 1622 during the reign of George Frederick, features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the margrave himself, surrounded by an elaborate wreath and the inscription "GEORG FRIEDRICH MARGVVE ZU BADEN UND HACH" (George Frederick, Margrave of Baden and Hach). This coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time, and its design reflects the importance of the margrave and the state's wealth.
