Prev. Pfalz-Sulzbach KM#110.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Kreuzers coin from the Electors of the Palatinate is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Theodor, who was the Elector of the Palatinate from 1763 to 1766. During his reign, Charles Theodor implemented a number of economic reforms, including the introduction of a new currency system, which helped to stabilize the economy and promote trade in the region. The 10 Kreuzers coin was a key part of this new currency system, and it remained in circulation for many years, serving as a symbol of the region's economic growth and prosperity.
