Comment
Minor variations in the design exist.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Dicken - Thomas I ND (1609-1628) from Lordship of Haldenstein (Grisons) made of Silver weighing 6.76 g is that it features a unique design, with an image of a crowned eagle on the obverse side and a shield with the coat of arms of the Lordship of Haldenstein on the reverse side. This design was specifically created for the Lordship of Haldenstein, which was a small territory in the Grisons region of Switzerland, and was used on several coins minted during Thomas I's reign. The use of a crowned eagle on the coin symbolized the power and authority of the Lordship, while the shield with the coat of arms represented the territory's independence and sovereignty.
