Interesting fact
The 24 Kreuzer coin from Frederick V's reign was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Palatinate. The Thirty Years War had just begun, and the region was facing significant economic challenges. Despite these challenges, the coin was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This fact suggests that the Palatinate was still capable of producing high-quality currency despite the challenges it faced.
