Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Stüber coin from East Frisia is that it was minted during the reign of Frederick II, also known as Frederick the Great, who was the King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to promote trade and commerce in the region. The ¼ Stüber coin was a small denomination coin, made of billon, a type of alloy that contains a mixture of copper, silver, and other metals. Despite its small value, this coin is a rare and valuable collector's item today, due to its historical significance and the limited number of coins minted during that time.
