Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Nassau is that it features a portrait of Duke William, who was the reigning duke at the time the coin was minted in 1831. The coin was minted to commemorate his visit to the mint, and it is believed that only a small number of these coins were produced, making them quite rare and valuable among collectors.
