Comment
Mintmaster - Jakob PfahlerInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Groschen coin from the Bishopric of Paderborn is that it features an image of Theodore of Fürstenberg, who was the Bishop of Paderborn from 1611 to 1613. This coin was minted during his episcopacy, and it is a rare example of a coin that was issued during a relatively short period of time. Additionally, the coin's silver content and weight make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the German States.
