Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Vereinsthaler coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden is that it was minted during a time of great economic change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1857, just a few years before the formation of the North German Confederation, which would eventually lead to the unification of Germany under a single currency. The Vereinsthaler was intended to be a standardized currency for the various German states, and its design and composition were overseen by the German Confederation. Despite its intended use as a standardized currency, the coin was not widely accepted outside of the Grand Duchy of Baden, and its use was eventually discontinued in favor of the German Empire's standardized currency.
