Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Stüber coin from the County of Sayn-Altenkirchen is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles William Frederick, who was the Count of Sayn-Altenkirchen from 1752 to 1757. During this period, the German States were experiencing significant economic growth and trade, which led to an increased demand for coinage. The ¼ Stüber coin was one of the many coins minted during this time to meet this demand, and it remains an interesting piece of history for collectors and numismatists today.
