Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Liard with M - Frederic Henry ND (1625-1647) from Principality of Orange (French States) made of Silver weighing 0.87 g is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648). This coin was issued by the Principality of Orange, which was a small state located in what is now southern France, and it features an image of Frederick Henry, the Prince of Orange, on one side and the coat of arms of the principality on the other. Despite being a small state, the Principality of Orange played a significant role in the war and was known for its military prowess. The coin itself is a testament to the economic and political instability of the time, as it was issued during a period of rapid inflation and currency devaluation.
