Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Gröschl - Christian Ulrich 1691-1704 from Duchy of Württemberg-Oels (Silesia) made of Silver weighing 0.76 g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Christian Ulrich, who was the Duke of Württemberg-Oels from 1691 to 1704. During this period, the Duchy of Württemberg-Oels was part of the Holy Roman Empire, which was a powerful and influential political entity in Europe at the time. The coin's design, which features an image of Christian Ulrich on one side and the coat of arms of Württemberg-Oels on the other, reflects the political and cultural influences of the time. Additionally, the fact that the coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal at the time, highlights the economic significance of the coin and the importance of trade and commerce during this period.
