Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Groschen coin from the City of Einbeck (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.90g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II, who was instrumental in introducing the taler, a new silver coin that became the standard currency across the German states. The 1 Groschen coin, which was equivalent to 1/24 of a taler, was part of this new currency system and played an important role in facilitating trade and commerce in the region.
