Interesting fact

The 1 Duit 1690 coin from the City of Groningen (Dutch Republic) is interesting because it was issued during a time when the Dutch Republic was experiencing significant economic growth and trade expansion. The coin's copper material and 2.0 g weight were standard for coins of its denomination during that period, but its design and mintage may have varied depending on the specific mint that produced it. It's a fascinating piece of history that provides insight into the economic and monetary systems of the Dutch Republic in the late 17th century.
