Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler - Leopold I (Brieg) 1695 coin from the Royal Mint of Silesia was made of silver, and it's interesting to note that the silver used in its production was sourced from the nearby mountains of the Sudetes. The minting process was done using a technique called "rolling mill," which was a new and innovative method at the time, allowing for the creation of more uniform and consistent coins.
