Comment
K - Wilhelm Körner - Engraver at the Kassel MintInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Electorate of Hesse (Hesse-Cassel) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1813, just a few years after the Napoleonic Wars had ended, and it reflects the efforts of the Electorate of Hesse to rebuild and modernize its economy during this period. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a deliberate choice, as it was a valuable and widely accepted metal at the time, and it symbolized the Electorate's commitment to stability and prosperity.
