Comment
Felke 85Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Electors of the Palatinate is that it was minted during the reign of Rupert I, who was the first King of Germany and the Holy Roman Emperor. This coin was issued during a time of great political and economic change in Europe, and its production marked an important milestone in the history of coinage. The fact that it was made of gold and weighed 3.51 grams also speaks to the value and significance of the coin during that time period.
