Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1858, just a few years before the formation of the North German Confederation in 1867, which was a precursor to the modern German state. The coin's mintage was also a reflection of the economic and monetary reforms that were taking place in Germany during this period.
