Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the County of Hanau-Lichtenberg, minted during the reign of Philip V in 1591-1592, features an interesting error on its reverse side. The coin's reverse die was accidentally struck upside down, resulting in the image of the eagle appearing inverted, with its head facing downwards instead of upwards. This error, known as a " inverted eagle," is highly prized by collectors and is considered a unique feature of this particular coin.
