Interesting fact
The Silver Leopold coin was minted during the reign of Leopold I, who was the Duke of Lorraine from 1710 to 1729. The coin features an image of Leopold I on one side and the coat of arms of Lorraine on the other. The coin was used as a standard circulation coin in the Duchy of Lorraine, which was a region in northeastern France that was ruled by the House of Lorraine, a royal family. The fact that the coin was made of silver and weighed 30.4 grams suggests that it was a significant coin with a high value, likely used for large transactions or as a store of value.
