Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from the Free City of Augsburg, minted in 1726, is interesting because it was made during a time when the city was experiencing significant economic growth and cultural development. Augsburg was a major center for trade and commerce in the German States during the early modern period, and the coin reflects the city's prosperity and influence during this time. Additionally, the coin's silver content and relatively low weight make it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of European currency.
