Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features an image of a shield with the coat of arms of the House of Württemberg, which includes a stag's antlers and a motto that translates to "I will maintain." This coin was minted during the reign of Christoph, Duke of Württemberg, who ruled from 1551 to 1556.
