Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Lorenz of Bibra 1511 from Bishopric of Würzburg (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "W" in the center, which represents the Bishopric of Würzburg. This coin was minted during the reign of Lorenz of Bibra, who was the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg from 1504 to 1519. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the bishop's authority and jurisdiction over the region.
