Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Lordship of Schönforst is that it features a unique design element - a stylized letter "S" on the reverse side, which represents the Schönforst region. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
