Minted in Hanau

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - William IX (Konventionstaler) 1765 from County of Hanau-Münzenberg (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of William IX, who was the Count of Hanau-Münzenberg from 1765 until his death in 1785. During this time, the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved, and the German states were in the process of forming their own confederation. The coin's design, which features an image of William IX on one side and the Hanau-Münzenberg coat of arms on the other, reflects the political and economic changes that were taking place in the region at the time.
