Interesting fact
The 1 Rose noble 1585 from Province of Zeeland (Dutch Republic) made of Gold is an extremely rare coin, with only a few known examples surviving to this day. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Dutch Republic, as the country was in the process of transitioning from a medieval society to a modern capitalist economy. The coin's design, which features a stylized rose on one side and a crowned shield on the other, reflects the growing influence of trade and commerce in the region during this period. Despite its age, the coin remains a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item, with some examples selling for tens of thousands of dollars at auction.
