Interesting fact
The 1/24 Thaler coin from the City of Hamelin (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.89g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Maximilian II (1572-1577) and features an intricate design, including a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the city and a lion holding a shield with the emperor's initials.
