Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden - Louis III the Bearded ND (1422) coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Palatinate region of Germany. The coin was issued by Louis III, who was the Elector Palatine at the time, and it was used as a means of promoting trade and commerce in the region. Despite being made of gold, the coin was not widely accepted outside of the Palatinate, and it is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item.
