Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Schelling coin from Spanish Netherlands is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the region. The coin was minted in 1704-1705, during the War of the Spanish Succession, which was a conflict that involved much of Europe and lasted from 1701 to 1714. Despite the conflict, the coin still features the image of King Philip V, who ruled Spain at the time. This highlights the resilience and determination of the people of Spanish Netherlands to maintain their economic and political stability during a time of war and upheaval.
