Interesting fact
The 12 Kreuzer coin from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach, issued in 1747 during the reign of Charles Frederick, is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was also part of a larger currency reform effort in the German States, aimed at standardizing coinage and facilitating trade across different regions.
