Interesting fact
The ¼ Stüber coin from East Frisia (German States) featuring Frederick II, also known as Frederick the Great, was minted in 1753 and made of copper. It weighs 3.16 grams and has a diameter of 23.5 millimeters. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin during Frederick's reign, and its design features the king's portrait on one side and the East Frisian coat of arms on the other. It's worth noting that Frederick II was a prominent figure in European history, known for his military conquests, administrative reforms, and cultural achievements. He ruled Prussia from 1740 until his death in 1786 and was instrumental in transforming the country into a major European power. The ¼ Stüber coin is a small but interesting piece of history that highlights Frederick's legacy and the economic systems of the time.
