Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Bamberg, minted in 1750 during the reign of John Philip Anthony, features an image of the bishop's mitre and crosier on one side, and the coat of arms of the bishopric on the other. This coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material that was commonly used for coins during that time period.
