Interesting fact
The 1 Flitter coin from Hildesheim was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just begun, and the Holy Roman Empire was in the process of dissolving. Despite these challenges, the City of Hildesheim continued to mint coins, including the 1 Flitter, which was used as a means of exchange and commerce. It's fascinating to think that this coin was used by people living in a time of such upheaval and change, and that it has survived to this day as a piece of history.
