Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg, minted in 1622 during the reign of Wolfgang William, features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the duke surrounded by a wreath made of palm branches. This design was meant to symbolize the duke's role as a protector of the Protestant faith, as well as his connection to the House of Palatinate, which had a long history of producing influential figures in the Protestant Reformation.
