Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the County of Hohenlohe-Neuenstein-Öhringen is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to test its authenticity. In the 18th century, counterfeit coins were a common problem, and this hole was used as a way to ensure that the coin was made of genuine silver and not a fake. This feature is quite rare in coins from this time period, making it a notable and interesting fact about this particular coin.
