Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Dannenberg is that it features an image of Julius Ernest, the ruling prince at the time, on one side, and a depiction of the coat of arms of the principality on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region, and its design reflects the importance of the ruling family and the principality's identity.
