Interesting fact

The 1 Heller coin from Landgraviate of Hesse-Cassel was minted during the reign of William IV, who was the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel from 1627 to 1637. During his reign, William IV introduced a new currency system, which included the 1 Heller coin, to replace the old system that had been in use since the 14th century. The 1 Heller coin was made of silver and had a unique design, featuring the coat of arms of Hesse-Cassel on one side and the numeral "1" on the other. This coin was an important part of the currency system in Hesse-Cassel during that time and was used for everyday transactions.
