Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer 1706 coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Holy Roman Empire. 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.
