Interesting fact
The 2½ Schwaren coin from the City of Bremen (German States) made of Copper weighing 2.92g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the late 18th and early 19th centuries, a period of revolution and upheaval, and its design reflects the political and economic shifts that were taking place at the time. The coin's obverse features the image of a shield with the Bremen coat of arms, while the reverse bears the denomination and the year of minting. Despite its small size and relatively low value, this coin is a fascinating piece of history that offers a glimpse into the economic and political climate of the time.
