Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Heller coin from the Electorate of Hesse (Hesse-Cassel) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The early 19th century saw the rise of industrialization and the fall of feudalism, and the production of coins like this one reflects the shifting economic landscape of the time. Additionally, the coin features an image of William IX, who was the ruler of Hesse-Cassel during this period and played a significant role in the region's political and economic development.
