Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Rappen coin from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach is that it was minted during the reign of Frederick VII Magnus, who was the last margrave of Baden-Durlach before the territory was inherited by the House of Baden. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin minted during a time when most coins were made of copper or other base metals. Additionally, the coin's design features the margrave's crowned shield and mantle, which symbolizes his power and authority.
