Comment
A = Jakob AbrahamInteresting 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 rule had a significant impact on the development of Prussia and Europe as a whole. 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.
