Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 12 Stüber coin from the Duchy of Jülich-Berg is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles Theodor, who was the last Duke of Jülich-Berg and also the Elector Palatine. This was a period of significant economic growth and trade, and the coin was likely used extensively in commercial transactions throughout the region. Additionally, the coin's silver content and intricate design make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
