Interesting fact
The Wiedertäufer Thaler coin from the City of Münster (German States) was minted in 1534 to commemorate the religious movement known as the Anabaptists, who were persecuted in the 16th century for their beliefs. The coin's design features an image of a group of Anabaptists being baptized, which was a central practice of their faith. Despite the coin's age and historical significance, it is still considered a circulating commemorative coin and is made of silver, weighing 29.85 grams.
