Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from the County of Görz (Austrian States) featuring Leonard V (Lienz) was minted during a time of great change in the region. The County of Görz was part of the Holy Roman Empire, and during the 15th century, the region was in the midst of political and economic upheaval. The coin's minting was likely a response to the growing need for currency in the region, as trade and commerce were becoming increasingly important. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin's silver content and carefully crafted design demonstrate the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the mint's artisans.
