Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Goldgulden coin from Landgraviate of Hesse-Cassel (Hesse-Cassel) made of Gold (.986) weighing 6.45 g is that it was minted during the reign of Charles (Edergold), who was the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel from 1677 to 1693. This coin was part of a series of gold coins that were minted during his reign, and it features an image of Charles on one side and the Hesse-Cassel coat of arms on the other. The coin's high gold content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
