Interesting fact
The 1½ Thaler coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg (German States) made of Silver is notable for its unique design. On one side, it features the coat of arms of Hamburg, which includes a shield with three towers and a crown, surrounded by two lions. On the other side, it depicts a portrait of a personification of the city of Hamburg, represented as a woman wearing a crown and holding a scepter. This design was used for several decades and became a symbol of the city's wealth and power during that time.
