Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Stolberg-Stolberg, minted during the reign of John Martin I (1645-1663), features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the County of Stolberg-Stolberg on one side, and the coat of arms of the House of Stolberg on the other. This design symbolizes the unity and connection between the ruling family and the territory they governed.
