Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Guldiner - Maximilian (Graz) ND (1511) coin is that it was minted during the reign of Emperor Maximilian I, who was known for his efforts to reform the Holy Roman Empire and strengthen its economy. The coin's design features an image of the emperor on one side and the Austrian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the unity and power of the empire. Despite being made of gold-plated silver, the coin was widely accepted and used as a standard form of currency throughout the empire, reflecting the strong economic influence of the Austrian Empire during that time.
