Interesting fact
The Thaler 1622-1645 from City of Zürich was used as a means of payment during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on trade and commerce in the region, and the value of currency fluctuated greatly during this time. Despite these challenges, the Thaler remained a widely accepted and trusted form of currency, and its silver content made it a valuable commodity.
