Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Reichsguldiner coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was introduced as part of a new currency system implemented by the Empire in 1598, which aimed to standardize coinage across the various German states. The 1 Reichsguldiner was equivalent to 240 Kreuzer, and it was used as a standard unit of account and payment throughout the Empire. Despite its widespread use, the coin was not without controversy, as some states and cities continued to mint their own coins, leading to confusion and competition in the currency market. Despite these challenges, the 1 Reichsguldiner remained an important coin in circulation until the early 17th century.
