Comment
Slg. Noss 317Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 15 Kreuzers coin from the Electors of the Palatinate is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the region. The Thirty Years War had recently ended, and the Palatinate was struggling to rebuild and maintain its independence. Despite these challenges, the coinage during this period was of high quality and has become highly sought after by collectors today.
