Comment
Varieties exist.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Körtling coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the Bishopric of Würzburg, where the coin was minted, remained a neutral territory, allowing the coin to be produced without interruption. This fact highlights the resilience and adaptability of the people of Würzburg during a period of significant upheaval.
