Interesting fact

The 1 Groschen coin from the County of Montbéliard (French States) made of Silver weighing 1.15g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Louis Frederick, who was the Duke of Württemberg from 1623 to 1624. This coin was part of a series of coins issued during his reign, and it features an image of the Duke on one side and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant choice, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely used in coinage during that time. Additionally, the fact that it was a standard circulation coin means that it was widely used in everyday transactions, making it a piece of history that was deeply connected to the lives of the people who used it.
