Interesting fact
The Thaler 1565 from Zug was minted during a time when Switzerland was still a collection of independent states, and the coin was used as a standardized form of currency across the region. It was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely accepted metal at the time, and it weighed 27.63 grams, making it a substantial coin. Despite its age, some of these coins have survived to this day and are highly sought after by collectors.
