Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Stüber coin from the City of Dortmund is that it was minted during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III, who ruled from 1452 to 1493. This coin was a standard circulation coin during that time and was made of silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal for currency in Europe during the 15th century. The fact that it was minted in the city of Dortmund, which was an important trading center in the German States, adds to its historical significance and value to collectors today.
