Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Schilling ND (1612-1613) from United duchies of Jülich-Kleve-Berg (German States) made of Silver weighing 3.30 g is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The United Duchies of Jülich-Kleve-Berg were a short-lived political entity that was formed in 1594 and lasted until 1614, when they were inherited by the Electorate of Brandenburg. This coin was minted during the reign of Johann Sigismund, who was the Duke of Jülich-Kleve-Berg from 1609 until his death in 1612. The coin's design features the coat of arms of the United Duchies on one side and the image of a crowned eagle on the other. Despite its relatively small size, this coin is a valuable piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political conditions of the time.
