Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - Wilhelm 1805 coin from the Counts of Auersperg (Austrian States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1805, just a few years before the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on the Austrian economy and currency. Despite this, the coin remained in circulation for many years and is still highly sought after by collectors today.
