Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Goldgulden coin is that it was minted during the reign of Meinhard VI, who was a member of the House of Gorz, a powerful noble family in the Austrian States. The coin's design features an image of Meinhard VI on one side and the coat of arms of the County of Gorz on the other. The use of gold in the coin's minting was a symbol of the county's wealth and power.
