Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Mattier - Frederick Ulrich 1624-1629 from Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.25g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on the region and led to a period of economic instability.
