Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it was minted during the reign of Gottfried III of Dalenbrok, who was a powerful nobleman in the German States during the 14th century. He was known for his military campaigns and his influence in the region, and his coinage reflects the wealth and power of his lordship. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 0.83 grams, which was a significant amount of silver at the time.
