Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Archbishopric of Cologne, minted between 1764 and 1765, features a unique design element - a small image of a shield with the coat of arms of the Archbishopric on the reverse side. This shield is located below the main image of Maximilian Frederick, the ruler of the Archbishopric at the time. This subtle detail highlights the importance of the Archbishopric's coat of arms and its connection to the ruling family.
