Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Bishopric of Utrecht. The bishopric was facing financial difficulties and political instability, which led to the minting of this coin with a lower gold content than previous issues. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, making it a valuable addition to any collection.
