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 German States. 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 upheaval, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place just a few years after the coin was minted. Despite these challenges, the 12 Kreuzer coin remained a widely used and valued form of currency throughout the region, and its silver content made it a popular choice for trade and commerce.
