Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Gold Guilder - Raymond V ND (1340-1393) from Principality of Orange (French States) is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, particularly in the French States. The coin was issued during the reign of Raymond V, who was the Count of Orange and the Lord of Baux, and it was a time of political and economic upheaval. Despite this, the coin still holds significant historical value and is a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
