Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Lüneburg 1 Thaler "Jagdtaler" coin is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical coat of arms or other symbols commonly found on coins, the Jagdtaler depicts a hunting scene with a noble figure on horseback, accompanied by a pack of hunting dogs and a dead deer. This design was meant to symbolize the city's rich hunting traditions and its reputation as a hub for hunting enthusiasts.
