Interesting fact

The Gold Florin - Charles I ND (1627-1637) from Duchy of Mantua (Italian States) is an interesting coin because it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles I, who was the Duke of Mantua and Montferrat from 1627 until his death in 1637. During his reign, Charles I implemented a number of reforms aimed at strengthening the economy and military of the Duchy, which had been weakened by years of conflict and political instability. The coin itself is made of gold (.986) and weighs 3.48 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
