Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Passau, minted in 1701 during the reign of John Philip of Lamberg, was made of silver and features an image of the bishop on one side and the coat of arms of the bishopric on the other. What's interesting about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, as the Holy Roman Empire was beginning to dissolve and the concept of modern nation-states was starting to take shape. This coin is a tangible reminder of the complex history and political landscape of the time.
