Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 15 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc is that it features an image of Karl I Joseph, who was the Bishop of Olomouc from 1663 to 1664. This coin was minted during his episcopacy, and it is a rare example of a coin that was issued by a religious leader during that time period. Additionally, the coin is made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time.
