Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1790 20 Kreuzers coin from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the midst of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, which brought about significant advancements in technology, trade, and commerce. Additionally, the coin was minted during a period of political upheaval, as the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved in 1806, and the German states were in the process of forming their own confederation. Despite these changes, the 20 Kreuzers coin remained a stable and widely used form of currency throughout the region.
