Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 2 Pfennigs - Charles I (Kipper) 1622 from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The Kipper era, which lasted from 1618 to 1623, was marked by a severe economic crisis, including a shortage of coins and a devaluation of the currency. This coin, minted in 1622, was part of an effort by the Teutonic Order to address the economic crisis by introducing a new coinage system. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin remains a valuable piece of numismatic history.
