Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 2 Kreuzers - John Frederick I 1623-1628 from Duchy of Württemberg (Württemberg, German States) made of Silver weighing 1 g 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 region and the coinage of the time. The 2 Kreuzers coin was minted in the midst of this conflict, and its production was likely affected by the economic and political instability of the time. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience of the people of Württemberg during this period.
