Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political significance in Europe. Frederick the Fair and Leopold I were both prominent figures in the Holy Roman Empire during the early 14th century, and their reigns saw a number of important events, including the rise of the Habsburg dynasty and the beginning of the Renaissance. This coin, minted in the city of Zofingen in what is now Switzerland, is a tangible reminder of that era and its significance in shaping the course of European history.
