Interesting fact
The 15 Kreuzers coin from the Abbey of Saint Gall (St. Gallen) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1781, just a few years before the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the European monetary system. The coin's silver content and its association with the Abbey of Saint Gall, a prominent religious institution, also make it a unique and valuable piece of numismatic history.
