Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Kreuzers coin from the County of Erbach is that it features three different rulers on its obverse side: Louis II, John Casimir, and George Albert. This is a unique feature among coins of that time period, as it was common for coins to feature only one ruler or a single image. The fact that three rulers are featured on this coin suggests that it may have been a special issue or commemorative coin, possibly minted to mark a significant event or occasion during their reigns.
