Interesting fact

The 1 Groschen coin from County of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg (German States) made of Silver weighing 2.45g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Ernest, who was the Count of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg from 1621 to 1635. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin minted during a time when most coins were made of copper or other base metals, making it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
