Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Archbishopric of Trier, minted in 1757 during the reign of John Philip of Walderdorff, features an image of the Archbishop on one side and the coat of arms of the Archbishopric on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighs 26.3 grams. It's interesting to note that the coin's design and weight were standardized across the German States during this time period, making it a valuable example of early European currency standardization.
