Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Bamberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" in the center, which stands for "Fuchs," the surname of the ruling bishop, John George II Fuchs. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
