Slg. Wilm. 916, Frank 53Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued by John Frederick, the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, who ruled from 1683 to 1685. During his reign, he implemented a number of economic reforms, including the introduction of a new coinage system, which helped to stabilize the local economy and promote trade. The 1 Kreuzer coin was a key part of this system, and it remained in circulation for many years, becoming a symbol of the region's economic growth and prosperity.
