Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia, minted during the reign of Matthias II (1613-1619), is notable for its unique design. The coin features a portrait of the king on one side and a depiction of the Bohemian lion on the other. The lion is shown holding a shield with the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia, which includes the symbol of the royal House of Habsburg. This design was meant to signify the king's authority and the connection between the Bohemian crown and the Habsburg dynasty.
