Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Principality of Transylvania is that it was issued during the reign of Charles III, who was the Prince of Transylvania from 1711 to 1713. This coin was part of a series of coins issued during his reign, which aimed to stabilize the economy of the Principality after a period of inflation and currency devaluation. The coin was made of silver and weighed 0.86 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin was an important part of the economy of the Principality and was widely used in trade and commerce.
