Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Krummau (Kingdom of Bohemia) made of Silver features an image of Johann Anton, the ruler of the duchy, on one side, and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. The coat of arms includes a shield with a crown on top, surrounded by two lions, symbolizing the power and authority of the ruler. The use of silver in the coin's minting process was a significant choice, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was often used in the production of coins during that time period.
