Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Rappen coin from the City of Freiburg (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.29g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor, who ruled from 1493 to 1519. During his reign, there was a significant increase in trade and commerce, which led to the need for a standardized system of currency. The 1 Rappen coin was one of the first coins to be minted as part of this standardized system, and it played an important role in facilitating trade and commerce across the German States.
