Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 18 Gröscher coin is that it was minted during the reign of Frederick II, also known as Frederick the Great, who was a highly influential and enlightened monarch. He was known for his military conquests, administrative reforms, and cultural achievements, and his reign marked a significant period of growth and prosperity for the Kingdom of Prussia. The coin's design, which features an image of Frederick II on one side and the Prussian eagle on the other, reflects the importance of the king and the state's symbolism during that time.
