Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Stüber coin from the City of Dortmund (German States) made of Copper weighing 1.9g is that it was used as a means of payment during a time of economic struggle in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1752 as a replacement for the previously used "Kipp" coin, which had become devalued due to excessive minting. The ¼ Stüber coin was valued at 25% of a standard Stüber coin and was used widely in the German States until its withdrawal in 1756. Despite its short circulation period, the coin remains a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
