Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from Brunswick-Lüneburg-Calenberg-Hannover is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1715, just a few years after the end of the Great Northern War, which had a profound impact on the economy and trade in the region. Additionally, the coin was minted during the reign of George I Louis, who was the first British monarch to rule Hanover, which was a significant event in the history of Europe.
