Comment
Slg. Noss II, 359Interesting fact
The 1 Goldgulden coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Zweibrücken (German States) made of Gold weighing 3.18 g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of John II (1616-1621), a time when the Holy Roman Empire was facing challenges from the Protestant Reformation and the Thirty Years' War. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and rarity, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
