Interesting fact
The 10 Kreuzers coin from the Landgraviate of Leuchtenberg, minted during the reign of John IV (1527-1528), features an interesting design element - a stylized portrait of the ruler, John IV, with a prominent pointed beard and a distinctive crown. This design was a departure from the more traditional depictions of rulers on coins, and it showcases the artistic style and techniques of the time.
