Interesting fact
The 1 Körtling coin from the City of Göttingen (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.08 g was minted during a time when the city was an important center of trade and commerce in Northern Germany. The coin's design features the city's coat of arms, which includes a shield with three horizontal bars and a crown on top, symbolizing the city's status as a free imperial city. The coin's mintage was limited, and it is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
