Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Free City of Regensburg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Francis I, who was instrumental in the development of the Austrian Empire and the introduction of new currency reforms. The coin's design, which features the Imperial Eagle on one side and the coat of arms of Regensburg on the other, reflects the political and economic ties between the Free City of Regensburg and the Austrian Empire during this period. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the coin is a significant piece of numismatic history and a testament to the complex economic and political landscape of 18th-century Europe.
