    Comments
    The Royal mint of Schwäbisch Hall was opened by Emperor Friedrich I. Barbarossa (1122-1190).
    The name Heller comes from the word Häller, in other words meaning a coin minted in Schwäbisch Hall and was first mentioned in 1189.
    Coins weighing 0.4 gr instead of 0.55 gram have a lower silver content and were minted in the 14th century.
