Comment

While Johan I von Luxemburg ruled since 1310, golden coins were first issued only in 1325.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Johan I von Luxemburg, who was the King of Bohemia from 1325 to 1346. During his reign, he sought to strengthen the Bohemian economy and increase trade, which led to the minting of coins like this Florin. The coin's made of gold (.990) and weighs 3.53g, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item for numismatists today.
