Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Heller coin from the Free Imperial City of Aachen (German States) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, had a significant impact on the coinage of many German states, including Aachen. The city's minting of coins during this period was likely influenced by the economic and political instability of the time.
