Interesting fact
The 1 Stüber coin from Emden was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued during the reign of Duke Johann Friedrich, who ruled the city from 1612 to 1648. During his reign, the city experienced significant growth and prosperity, and the coin was used as a means of facilitating trade and commerce. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not widely accepted outside of the city, and its value was not consistent with other coins issued by neighboring states. This made it difficult for merchants and traders to use the coin in their transactions, and it ultimately contributed to the coin's rarity and historical significance.
