Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Bishopric of Hildesheim is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on the German States, including the Bishopric of Hildesheim, and led to a period of economic instability and inflation. Despite these challenges, the 1 Goldgulden coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency, and its value remained consistent throughout this period.
