Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the State of Brandenburg-Prussia (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and the coin was minted in 1639, just before the war began. This coin is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Brandenburg-Prussia during a time of great turmoil.
