The coinage of the time was decentralized, with each city and state minting its own coins. The Free City of Augsburg, where this coin was minted, was a wealthy and influential city that played a significant role in the Empire's economy. The 1 Kreuzer coin was a standard denomination at the time, and it was used widely in trade and commerce throughout the region. Despite its age, the coin remains a popular collector's item today, with many examples still in existence and highly sought after by numismatists.
