Interesting fact
The 15 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Liegnitz-Brieg (Silesia) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during the reign of George Wilhelm, who was the last Duke of Liegnitz-Brieg before the duchy was annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia in 1742. This coin is a rare example of the currency used during that time period and is a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
