Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Kreuzers coin from the Electorate of Bavaria is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in Europe. The coin was minted during the reign of Ferdinand Maria, who was the Elector of Bavaria from 1661 to 1676. During this time, the Holy Roman Empire was in decline, and the German states were struggling for power and independence. Despite these challenges, the 2 Kreuzers coin remained a stable and widely used form of currency throughout the region.
