Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Bayreuth, minted in 1726 during the reign of George William, was made of silver and features an image of the margrave on one side and the coat of arms of the margraviate on the other. What's interesting about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, as the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved and various German states began to assert their independence. The coin's design and the materials used to mint it reflect the wealth and power of the margraviate at the time.
