One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer - Ferdinand II (Neisse) 1624 coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, specifically during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). Despite the conflict, the Royal Mint of Silesia continued to produce coins, including this one, which was used as a means of exchange and commerce. The coin's silver content and minimal weight made it a practical and valuable asset for everyday transactions.
