Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 12 Kreuzer coin from County of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda 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 Adolphus (also known as Kipper), who was the Count of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda from 1620 to 1622. During this time, the region was experiencing significant economic growth and political stability, which led to an increase in trade and commerce. The minting of this coin was likely a response to the growing demand for currency in the region, and it is a testament to the economic and political changes that were taking place during this time.
