Interesting fact

The 1 Goldgulden coin from County of Fugger-Babenhausen-Wellenburg (German States) made of Gold (.986) weighing 3.17 g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Maximilian II, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1623 to 1651. This coin was issued during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its production was likely influenced by the ongoing Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin's high gold content and detailed design demonstrate the advanced craftsmanship and attention to detail of the mint.
