Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from the County of Montfort-Peggau (German States) made of Billon is interesting because it features a unique design, with an image of Francis Xavier, a Jesuit priest and missionary, on one side, and the coat of arms of the County of Montfort-Peggau on the other. This coin was minted in 1763 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States during that time.
