Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzers coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "C.F.C.A." (for Christian Frederick Charles Alexander) located above the crown on the obverse side of the coin. This shield is not found on other coins from the same era, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
