Interesting fact

The Florin coin from the Duchy of Lorraine, made of gold and weighing 3.19g, is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Antoine, who was the Duke of Lorraine from 1510 to 1533. This coin was a standard circulation coin during that time and is now considered a valuable collector's item.
