Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin commemorating Gustav II Adolphus' death and the Swedish occupation of Osnabrück during the Thirty Years' War is a rare and valuable collector's item. It was minted in 1633 in the City of Osnabrück, which was then part of the German States, and is made of silver. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Gustav II Adolphus on one side and a depiction of the city of Osnabrück on the other, which makes it a unique and historically significant artifact from that time period.
