Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Thaler 1624 from City of Basel made of Silver weighing 28.76g is that it was used as a means of payment in the City of Basel during the 17th century. It was a widely accepted coin in the region and was used for various transactions, including buying goods and services. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not as valuable as other coins made of gold or other precious metals, but it was still considered a valuable form of currency during its time.
