Interesting fact

The Daalder "Karolusdaalder" ND (1538-1542) coin from the Imperial Cities of Deventer, Kampen, and Zwolle (Dutch States) is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, who was also King of Spain and Archduke of Austria. This coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during his rule, and its design features the image of Charles V on one side and the coat of arms of the three cities on the other. The fact that it was made of silver and weighs 28.7 grams adds to its value and historical significance, making it a sought-after collector's item for numismatists and history enthusiasts.
