Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc (Kingdom of Bohemia) made of Silver in 1729 features an interesting fact. The coin's designer, Wolfgang von Schrattenbach, was a prominent artist and engraver of the time, known for his work in various European courts. He was commissioned by the Bishop of Olomouc to create the coin's design, which features an image of the bishop on one side and the Bohemian coat of arms on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable example of early European coinage and is highly sought after by collectors.
