Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Rupert II of Pfalz, who was a powerful prince-elector of the Holy Roman Empire. He played a significant role in the political and economic affairs of the region, and his coinage reflects the wealth and influence of the Palatinate during that time. The coin's design features Rupert II's name and title, "Als Pfandinhaber," which translates to "As Pledge-holder," highlighting his role as a guarantor of the coin's value.
