Interesting fact

The 1 Zehner coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was minted between 1527 and 1533, a period when the Protestant Reformation was gaining momentum, and the Empire was facing political and religious upheaval. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, offering a glimpse into the economic and political climate of that era.
