Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Reichsort 1625 coin from the City of Halberstadt (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally drilled into the coin as a way to test its authenticity, as it was believed that counterfeiters would not be able to replicate this detail. This feature, known as a "plug," was a common technique used in the production of silver coins during this time period to prevent counterfeiting.
