Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from Augsburg was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and many German states, including Augsburg, were struggling to rebuild their economies. As a result, the coinage of the time was often irregular and varied in quality. Despite these challenges, the 1 Kreuzer coin from Augsburg remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item to this day.
