Kallmünz mint

Interesting fact

The 1 Thaler coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg, minted in 1623 during the reign of Wolfgang William, features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the duke surrounded by a wreath made up of various agricultural products, such as grains, fruits, and flowers. This design was meant to symbolize the duchy's rich agricultural resources and the duke's commitment to the well-being of his subjects.
