Interesting fact
The 1 Groschen 1670 coin from the City of Magdeburg (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was issued during a time when the city was experiencing significant economic growth and cultural development, and the coin's design reflects this prosperity. The obverse of the coin features the coat of arms of Magdeburg, which includes a shield with a crowned eagle, symbolizing the city's status as a free imperial city. The reverse of the coin features a stylized image of a groschen, which was a common denomination in the German states at the time. The fact that the coin was made of silver also speaks to the city's wealth and prosperity during this period.
