Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic upheaval in Europe. The coin was issued in 1798, just a few years after the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the German states and led to the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Napoleonic Wars. Despite these challenges, the Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort was able to maintain its independence and issue its own currency, which is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people who lived there.
