Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from Ulm was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I, who ruled from 1658 to 1705. During this period, the Holy Roman Empire was facing economic challenges, including inflation and debasement of the currency. The 1 Kreuzer coin was one of the few coins that maintained its value during this time, as it was made of silver and had a relatively high purity level. This made it a popular choice for trade and commerce, and it was widely accepted throughout the German States.
