Interesting fact
The 10 Kreuzers coin from the League of God's House (Grisons) in 1568 is interesting because it was minted during a time of religious turmoil in Europe, specifically the Protestant Reformation. The coin's design, which features a cross and other religious symbols, reflects the region's strong Catholic heritage and its allegiance to the Holy Roman Empire. Despite the religious tensions of the time, the coin was widely accepted and used in trade throughout the region, demonstrating the importance of currency in facilitating economic exchange and cooperation.
