Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Austrian Empire, minted in 1706 during the reign of Joseph I, features an interesting fact. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not minted in the traditional way, but rather by a process called "forging," where the metal was heated and hammered into shape. This method was used to create coins with a higher level of detail and precision than traditional minting methods, resulting in a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing coin.
