Slg. Grüber 4637Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued during the reign of Christian Frederick Charles Alexander, who was the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach from 1759 to 1763. During his reign, the Margraviate was facing significant economic challenges, including a large national debt and a lack of resources. Despite these challenges, the Margrave was able to implement a number of reforms that helped to modernize the economy and increase trade in the region. The 1 Kreuzer coin, which was made of silver, was an important part of this effort, as it helped to standardize currency and facilitate trade throughout the German States.
