Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc is that it features an image of Wolfgang von Schrattenbach, the Bishop of Olomouc, on one side, and the Bohemian coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during von Schrattenbach's episcopacy, which lasted from 1736 to 1738, and was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time.
