Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features an image of the ruler, Joachim Ernest, on one side, and a depiction of the Brandenburg coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted in 1623, during Joachim Ernest's reign, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States. The use of silver in the coin's minting process adds to its historical significance and value, as silver was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time.
