Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 14 Kreuzers coin from the City of Fribourg is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Europe. The late 18th century was a period of Enlightenment and revolution, with the French Revolution occurring just a few years after the minting of this coin. The coin's design, featuring the coat of arms of Fribourg and the Swiss cross, reflects the political and cultural influences of the time.
