Interesting fact

The 1 Constantin d'or coin from the Bishopric of Strasbourg (French States) is interesting because it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Seven Years' War (1756-1763). Despite the conflict, the coin's gold content and intricate design have survived the test of time, making it a valuable piece for collectors and historians.
