Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1641 to commemorate the 9th anniversary of the Peace of Westphalia, which ended the Thirty Years' War in Europe. The coin's design features an image of the Reichstag, or Imperial Diet, which was a powerful legislative body in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's high gold content and detailed design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
