Comment
Slg. Grüber 4678Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler "Konventionstaler" coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1778, just a few years after the establishment of the "Konventionstaler" currency system, which aimed to standardize coinage across the various German states. This system helped to simplify trade and commerce across the region, and coins like the 1 Thaler "Konventionstaler" played an important role in facilitating economic transactions during this time.
