Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Maximilian 1596 coin from the Teutonic Order (German States) made of Silver is that it features an image of Maximilian I, the Holy Roman Emperor, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Teutonic Order on the other. This coin was minted during Maximilian's reign (1564-1596) and was used as a means of promoting his image and authority throughout the German States. The coin's design and symbolism reflect the political and religious influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
