Interesting fact
The 10½ Heller coin from the City of Bocholt (German States) made of Copper is interesting because it was minted during a time when the German States were still using a variety of different currencies, and this coin was one of the first standardized coins to be widely accepted across the region. This coin was minted in 1762, and it features an image of a crowned eagle on one side and the number 10½ on the other. The use of copper as the material for the coin was a common practice during this time period, as it was a relatively inexpensive and abundant metal. Despite its age, some of these coins are still in circulation today and are highly sought after by collectors.
