Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from Brunswick-Lüneburg-Calenberg-Hannover (German States) made of Silver features an image of George I, who was the first British monarch of the House of Hanover. This dynasty ruled the Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland from 1714 to 1837, and its members were also Electors of Hanover, a region in Germany. This coin was minted during George I's reign, which lasted from 1714 to 1727.
