Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 12 Kreuzer coin from the Archbishopric of Magdeburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "C.W." (for Christian William) placed above the coat of arms of Brandenburg. This subtle detail sets it apart from other coins of the time and adds to its historical significance.
