Interesting fact
The 2 Goldgulden coin from the City of Basel, minted in 1645, is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, particularly in Switzerland. The coin's mintage was likely a response to the growing demand for gold coins during this period, as the Swiss Confederation was transitioning from a feudal society to a more modern, capitalist economy. Additionally, the coin's design, featuring the Basel coat of arms and the Swiss cross, reflects the city's rich history and cultural heritage.
