Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1861 Vereinsthaler from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued during the German Confederation, a short-lived union of 39 German states that was formed in 1815 and dissolved in 1866. The Vereinsthaler was intended to be a standardized currency for the Confederation, but it was not widely adopted and was eventually replaced by the German Empire's currency, the Mark, in 1871. Despite its limited use, the 1861 Vereinsthaler remains a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
