Interesting fact
The 1 Heller coin from the Free City of Augsburg was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Charles VII, who was struggling to maintain the empire's power and influence in the face of growing nationalism and territorialism. Despite these challenges, the Augsburg mint continued to produce high-quality coins like the 1 Heller, which were widely used in trade and commerce throughout the German States.
