Interesting fact

The 1 Dreier coin from the City of Goslar (German States) was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Ferdinand II, who was instrumental in the counter-reformation movement and the Thirty Years' War. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remained a stable currency, with its value pegged to the silver standard. This coin is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people of Goslar during a period of significant upheaval.
