Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Dreier coin from the City of Göttingen (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just begun in 1618 and would last until 1648, causing widespread devastation and disrupting trade routes. Despite this, the City of Göttingen continued to mint coins, such as the 1 Dreier, which was used as a means of exchange and commerce. The coin's silver content and intricate design made it a valuable and reliable form of currency, and it remains a sought-after collector's item to this day.
