Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Eichstätt is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "I.C.", which stand for "Johannes Conradus," the name of the bishop who issued the coin. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the image of the bishop himself. This small detail adds an extra layer of historical significance to the coin and provides a glimpse into the life and legacy of the bishop who issued it.
