Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The reign of George I Louis (1714-1727) saw significant reforms in the mining and coinage industries, which led to the introduction of new coinage systems and the improvement of existing ones. The 1 Thaler coin, in particular, was an important denomination that was widely used in trade and commerce during this period. Its silver content and intricate design made it a valuable and reliable form of currency, and it remains a sought-after collector's item to this day.
