Step into the fiery workshops of 16th-century Bohemia with Lazarus Ercker, the master of the mint who transformed metallurgy from a secretive alchemical pursuit into a precise, empirical science. Discover the 'noble art' of assaying, where divine providence meets rigorous mathematics to unlock the secrets of gold, silver, and the industrial forces that built empires.
