Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Écu d'Or - Louis XIII 1610-1646 coin from France is that it was minted during a time when the French monetary system was undergoing significant changes. The coin was introduced in 1610, and it was one of the first coins to be minted with a standardized weight and purity, which was 95.8% gold. This was a departure from the previous system, where coins were minted with varying weights and purities, making it difficult to determine their value. The introduction of the 1 Écu d'Or coin helped to establish a more stable and reliable monetary system in France, and it paved the way for the development of other standardized coins in the future.
