Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Maria (Gemeinstaler) 1572 from Lordship of Jever (German States) coin is that it features an image of Mary, the mother of Jesus, on one side, and a depiction of the Jever eagle on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Lordship of Jever was an independent state within the Holy Roman Empire, and it is a rare example of a coin that has survived from that era.
