Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Archbishopric of Trier is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe.

This was a period of significant economic growth and trade, and the coin was likely used to facilitate transactions and commerce in the region. Additionally, the fact that it was made of gold and weighed 3.43 grams suggests that it was a valuable and highly sought-after coin during its time.
