Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Florin - John IV ND (1420-1421) from Duchy of Brabant (Belgian States) made of Gold (.729) weighing 3.30 g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of John IV, Duke of Brabant, who ruled from 1415 to 1427. During his reign, the Duchy of Brabant was facing economic challenges, including inflation and debasement of the currency. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of medieval coin makers.
