Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden (Hubertus-Goldgulden) - William III ND (1489) from Duchy of Jülich-Berg (German States) is that it features a unique design, with an image of Saint Hubertus, the patron saint of hunters, on one side, and a portrait of William III, Duke of Jülich-Berg, on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Duchy of Jülich-Berg was facing economic challenges, and the use of gold in the coin's production was a symbol of the duchy's wealth and power.
