Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features an image of Eberhard Louis, the ruler of the duchy from 1693 to 1707, on one side, and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the influences of the Baroque period. Despite its small size, the coin is a valuable piece of history and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of the region.
