Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Gulden 1633 from Siege of Ingolstadt (German States) coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil and scarcity. The Siege of Ingolstadt, which took place from 1631 to 1634, was a brutal conflict between Catholic and Protestant forces during the Thirty Years' War. The coin was likely minted as a response to the shortage of currency caused by the war, and its silver content was likely a reflection of the limited resources available during this time. Despite its origins in a time of conflict, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience of the people who lived through such turbulent times.
