Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Silbergroschen coin from the Principality of Reuss Younger Line is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany. The coin was issued in 1850, just a few years after the German Revolutions of 1848, which had led to a period of political and economic instability in the country. Despite these challenges, the Principality of Reuss Younger Line was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, including the 2 Silbergroschen piece. This coin is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Reuss Younger Line during a difficult period in German history.
