Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler (Regimentstaler) coin from the City of Memmingen (German States) made of Silver in 1623 is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thaler was a widely used denomination in the German States, and this particular coin was minted during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648), which had a profound impact on the region's economy and currency. The fact that it was made of silver also speaks to the value and rarity of the coin, as silver was a highly valued metal at the time.
