Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Sechsling coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg (German States) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1846, just a few years before the German Confederation was formed, which was a union of 39 German states that aimed to create a unified German state. The coin's mintage was also a reflection of the growing economic power of Hamburg, which was an important trading center in Northern Germany.
