Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler (Konventionstaler) coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg, produced in 1765, is fascinating because it was minted during a time when the city was part of the Holy Roman Empire, a political entity that spanned across Central Europe during the Middle Ages and early modern period. The coin's design, which features the city's coat of arms and other symbols, reflects the rich history and cultural heritage of Nuremberg during that era. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs 27.86 grams highlights the coin's value and significance as a medium of exchange during that time.
