Comment
Here Noss IV 460Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅛ Reichstaler coin from the City of Cologne (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The 1673-1674 period saw the formation of the Holy Roman Empire, a political entity that lasted for over a thousand years and encompassed much of Central Europe. The coin's silver content and relatively low denomination suggest that it was used for everyday transactions, and its design may have reflected the cultural and artistic influences of the time.
