Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1619 Kipper coin is that it was issued during a time of great economic turmoil in the German States. The Kipper und Wipper inflation, which occurred between 1618 and 1623, was a period of rapid inflation and currency devaluation that affected many German states, including the Archbishopric of Magdeburg. Despite this, the 1619 Kipper coin remained a stable and trusted form of currency, and its silver content made it a valuable commodity during a time of economic uncertainty.
