Slg. Noss 327, Slg. Memmesh. 2368Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Albus - Charles 1681 from Electors of the Palatinate (Palatinate, German States) made of Silver weighing 0.8 g is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The Palatinate was a powerful state in the Holy Roman Empire, and the election of Charles XI in 1681 marked a significant shift in the balance of power in the region. This coin, minted during his reign, is a tangible reminder of that moment in history.
