Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers - George William 1631 coin from State of Brandenburg-Prussia (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and the coin was minted in the following year, 1631. This coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during this time, and its silver content made it a valuable and reliable form of currency. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin has survived and remains a valuable piece of history for collectors and numismatists today.
