Similar to 1 Thaler, KM#39.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1658 Johann Christian and Johann Seyfried 1¼ Thaler coin from the Duchy of Krummau (Kingdom of Bohemia) is that it features a unique combination of religious and political symbols. On one side, the coin bears an image of the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus, while on the other side, it features the coat of arms of the House of Habsburg, which was the ruling dynasty of the Kingdom of Bohemia at the time. This blending of religious and political symbols reflects the complex political and religious landscape of Europe during the 17th century.
