Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Birkenfeld-Zweibrücken, minted in 1765 during the reign of Christian IV, features an error in the inscription on the reverse side. The Latin inscription "CHRISTIANUS IV D G PALATINUS" is misspelled as "CHRISTIANUS II D G PALATINUS," with the numeral "II" instead of "IV." This error was likely caused by a mistake in the engraving process and was not corrected before the coins were minted and circulated. Despite the error, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item for numismatists.
