Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of political and religious upheaval in Europe, particularly in the German States. The Bishopric of Paderborn, where the coin was minted, was a small state within the Holy Roman Empire, and the coin's minting was likely influenced by the political and religious tensions of the time.
