Comment
Kipper coinage. Smaller and lighter than KM#21, approx .5 g.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Groschen coin from the County of Stolberg (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1619, just a few years before the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War, which would have a profound impact on the region and its economy. Despite this turmoil, the coin remains a testament to the enduring legacy of the County of Stolberg and its rich history.
