Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Archbishopric of Cologne is that it features an image of Rupert of the Palatinate, who was a powerful prince-elector and bishop in the Holy Roman Empire during the 15th century. Despite being a religious leader, Rupert was known for his military campaigns and political maneuvering, which likely contributed to his inclusion on the coin. Additionally, the coin's gold content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
