Interesting fact
The 1½ Thaler coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Holy Roman Empire. The Thaler was a widely used denomination across the empire, and the City of Hildesheim's minting of this coin reflects the city's importance as a commercial center in the region. The coin's silver content and intricate design also speak to the advanced minting techniques and artistic skills of the time.
