Interesting fact

The 1 Groschen coin from the City of Hannover (German States) made of Silver was minted during a time of great change in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was minted during the reign of Emperor Maximilian I, who ruled from 1493 to 1519. During his reign, Maximilian I introduced a new currency system, the "Groschen," which replaced the older "Pfennig" currency. The 1 Groschen coin was a significant denomination in this new currency system and was widely used throughout the Empire. This fact highlights the historical significance of the coin and its connection to the broader economic and political changes taking place in Europe during the early 16th century.
