Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden - Frederick V 1621 coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Palatinate region of Germany. The Thirty Years War had recently ended, and the region was struggling to rebuild and reestablish its economy.
