Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the region. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on the economy and coinage of the region, leading to the production of a variety of emergency coinages, including the 1 Kreuzer coin. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and design, featuring an image of Ferdinand II on one side and the Bohemian coat of arms on the other.
