Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg, minted during the reign of Wolfgang William in 1626-1627, features an unusual design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical coat of arms or other symbol of the duchy, the coin features a depiction of a lion's head, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This unique design was likely intended to symbolize the duchy's strength and power, as the lion was seen as a symbol of courage and bravery in medieval Europe.
