One interesting fact about the ½ Kreuzer coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it was minted during the reign of Leopold I, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1658 to 1705. This coin was minted in Kuttenberg, which is now known as Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic. The coin was made of silver and weighed 0.54 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin was widely used in trade and commerce throughout the kingdom.
