Interesting fact
The ¼ Kreuzer coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden, minted between 1821 and 1824, features an interesting design element - a stylized depiction of a horse on the reverse side. This horse design was a common motif in coinage during the time period and was meant to symbolize strength, power, and fertility. Additionally, the use of copper as the material for the coin was a deliberate choice, as it was a relatively inexpensive and abundant metal, making it accessible to the general population for everyday transactions.
