Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from the City of Ulm (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended, and many German states were struggling to rebuild their economies. The City of Ulm, in particular, was an important trading center and the coin was likely used for everyday transactions. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not worth much, with its value being equivalent to about 1/4 of a euro today. However, its historical significance and rarity make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
