Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the City of Hildesheim (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Rudolf II, who was known for his efforts to centralize power and promote trade and commerce throughout the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's minting was likely a response to the growing demand for a standardized currency that could be used across different regions and cities, and it reflects the increasing importance of trade and commerce in the early modern period.
