Comment
Mintmaster - Simon TimpfInteresting fact
The 2 Thalers 1616 coin from the City of Stade (German States) made of Silver features an image of a shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a stork, a symbol of luck and prosperity, and a crescent moon, a symbol of hope and new beginnings. This coin was minted during a time of great economic growth and prosperity in the region, and the inclusion of these symbols reflects the optimism and confidence of the people during that period.
