Mintmaster - Martin LerchMinted for use in the Upper Palatinate
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden - Louis V 1508 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 the Electors of the Palatinate, who were powerful nobles who played a significant role in the political and economic affairs of the region. The coin's minting was likely a response to the growing demand for a standardized currency in the region, as well as the increasing influence of the Renaissance and the rise of trade and commerce. The coin's design, which features an image of Louis V, the Elector Palatine, and the coat of arms of the Palatinate, reflects the cultural and political influences of the time.
