Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt (German States) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I, who ruled over a rapidly changing German Empire. The coin's mintage was a response to the growing need for a standardized currency across the German states, which were previously using a variety of different currencies. The 1 Kreuzer coin was one of the first coins to be widely accepted and used across the German states, paving the way for the eventual adoption of the German Mark as the standard currency of Germany.
