Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt, also known as the "Kipper" coin, was issued during the reign of Louis V in 1622. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of silver, which was a rare and valuable metal at the time. This coin was also unique because it was one of the first coins to feature a portrait of a ruler, which was a departure from the traditional designs featuring symbols or emblems. Additionally, the coin's design was influenced by the Renaissance style, which was popular during that time period.
