Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from County of Mansfeld-Friedeburg is that it features four different rulers: Peter Ernest I, Bruno II, Gebhard VIII, and John George IV. This is unusual as most coins typically feature only one ruler or a single ruling family. The coin's design, which includes the four rulers' names and titles, reflects the complex political landscape of the German States during the early 17th century.
