Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ⅙ Reichsguldiner coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was issued in the early 17th century, a period marked by the Thirty Years' War, which had a profound impact on the empire's economy and political structure. Despite these challenges, the Nuremberg mint continued to produce high-quality coins like the ⅙ Reichsguldiner, which were widely used for trade and commerce.
