Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 12 Kreuzer coin from the County of Mansfeld-Bornstedt is that it features four different names on its obverse side: Wolfgang, Bruno, John Frederick, and Philip (also known as Kipper). This is unusual for a coin, as typically only one or two names are featured. The inclusion of multiple names may indicate that these individuals were all significant figures in the region at the time, or that they played important roles in the coin's production or distribution.
