Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Vereinsthaler coin from the Duchy of Brunswick is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1858, just a few years before the formation of the North German Confederation in 1867, which ultimately led to the unification of Germany in 1871. The coin's mintage was also a reflection of the economic and political shifts happening during that time, as it was made of silver and had a relatively low denomination, indicating its use as a widely circulating coin among the general population.
