Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Sinzendorf, minted in 1676 during the reign of George Ludwig, features an unusual design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical coat of arms or other symbol of the county, the coin bears an image of a large tree, surrounded by the Latin inscription "Arbor Vitae" (Tree of Life). This unique design was likely intended to symbolize the county's prosperity and growth, and it makes the coin stand out among other coins of the time.
