Interesting fact
The 1 Goldgulden coin from the Principality of Luneburg (Brunswick-Luneburg, German States) made of Gold weighing 3.17 g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Bernard, who was the Prince of Luneburg from 1427 to 1434. This coin is a rare example of a gold coin minted during the Renaissance period in Europe, and its design features the coat of arms of the Principality of Luneburg on one side and the image of Saint George slaying a dragon on the other.
