Comment
KM# is attributed to Austrian states.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Krummau (Kingdom of Bohemia) is that it features a unique combination of religious and secular symbols on its obverse side. The coin bears the image of Saint John the Baptist, patron saint of the Duchy, alongside the coat of arms of the ruling family, the House of Eggenberg. This blending of religious and secular motifs reflects the complex political and religious landscape of the region during the 17th century.
