Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Thaler - Henry of Bobenhausen 1575 (1575-1576) from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Silver weighing 29.33 g is that it features an image of Henry of Bobenhausen, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Teutonic Order on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, with the Protestant Reformation and the rise of nation-states challenging the power of the Catholic Church and the Holy Roman Empire. Despite these challenges, the Teutonic Order continued to play an important role in the region, and this coin serves as a tangible reminder of their influence and authority.
