Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Carolin coin from the Abbey of Fulda is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1735, during the reign of Adolph of Dalberg, who was the Prince-Abbot of Fulda at the time. The coin's mintage was likely a response to the growing need for currency in the region, as trade and commerce were increasing. The use of gold in the coin's production also speaks to the value and wealth of the Abbey of Fulda during this period. Despite its age, the coin remains a valuable and interesting piece of numismatic history.
