Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 12 Kreuzer coin from the Kingdom of Württemberg is that it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Europe. The coin was minted in 1824, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna, which saw the major powers of Europe come together to redraw the map of the continent and establish a new balance of power. This period of change and uncertainty likely had a significant impact on the economy and currency of the time, making coins like the 12 Kreuzer an interesting window into the past.
