Interesting fact
The 1 Goldgulden coin from the Archbishopric of Cologne, minted between 1556 and 1557, features an interesting design element - a stylized depiction of the Archbishop's mitre on the reverse side. This design choice was meant to symbolize the authority and power of the Archbishopric, and it adds a unique touch to the coin's overall aesthetic.
