Interesting fact
The Maximilian IV Joseph 1805 ½ Stuber coin from the Duchy of Berg (German States) is interesting because it was issued during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The coin was minted in 1805, just a few years before the Napoleonic Wars, which had a profound impact on the German states and led to the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire.
