Interesting fact
The 12 Kreuzer coin from Strasbourg was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on the coinage of many European states, including the City of Strasbourg. Despite the challenges posed by the war, the Strasbourg mint continued to produce high-quality coins, such as the 12 Kreuzer, which were widely used for trade and commerce.
