Interesting fact
The 1 Vereinsthaler coin from the Principality of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt, which was minted in 1866 during the reign of Frederick Günther, features an unusual design on its reverse side. Instead of the usual coat of arms or other symbol of the principality, the coin bears an image of a wild boar, which was a popular game animal in the region at the time. This unique design choice was likely intended to highlight the region's rich hunting traditions and its connection to the natural world.
