Interesting fact
The 1 Schilling coin from the Russian occupation of Eastern Prussia (German States) in 1759-1761 is interesting because it was made of Billon, a metal alloy that contains only 0.0625 silver, which is a relatively low percentage of silver compared to other coins of its time. Despite this, the coin still maintained a relatively high value due to its association with the Russian occupation and the limited number of coins produced during this period.
