Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Ecu - Frédéric-Maurice 1634 from Principality of Sedan (French States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the Principality of Sedan was able to maintain its independence and issue its own currency, which is a testament to the region's resilience and economic strength during that period.
