Interesting fact

The 1 Körtling coin from the County of Regenstein, minted during the reign of Ulrich XII between 1546 and 1549, is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time. The use of silver in coins was a symbol of wealth and power, and it was often reserved for coins of high denominations or special issues. The fact that this coin was made of silver suggests that it was an important issue for the County of Regenstein and that it was intended to be used for significant transactions or as a store of value.
