Interesting fact
This coin was minted during the reign of Frederick V, who ruled as the Burggraf (Castellan) of Nuremberg from 1361 to 1388. The Burgraviate of Nuremberg was a small but significant state within the Holy Roman Empire, known for its rich cultural heritage and economic prosperity. This particular coin, weighing just 0.57 grams, represents a standard circulation piece used in everyday transactions during that period. Its silver composition suggests it was valued for both its monetary worth and aesthetic appeal, reflecting the high standards of craftsmanship associated with medieval German mints.
