Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from Nuremberg was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a profound impact on the German States, including Nuremberg. Despite the challenges of this period, the city continued to mint coins, including the 1 Kreuzer, which was an important denomination for trade and commerce. The fact that the coin was made of silver, a valuable and durable metal, speaks to the city's resilience and ability to maintain its economic stability during a time of conflict and upheaval.
