Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Gulden - Leopold I (Ausbeute-Gulden) 1852 coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in the region. The coin was introduced as part of a currency reform aimed at addressing inflation and stabilizing the economy, and its introduction marked a shift away from the use of bartering and towards the use of standardized currency. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin remained in circulation for several decades and remains a valuable collector's item today.
