Comment
Maximilian II (1598-1629)
Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Fugger-Babenhausen-Wellenburg, issued during the reign of Maximillian II (1621-1623), features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the Fugger family's coat of arms on one side, and the Imperial eagle on the other. This symbolizes the close relationship between the Fugger family, who were influential merchant bankers, and the Holy Roman Empire.
