Interesting fact
The 24 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Liegnitz-Brieg (Silesia) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and many regions were struggling to rebuild and stabilize their economies. The minting of this coin suggests that the Duchy of Liegnitz-Brieg was experiencing a period of economic growth and stability, and that the ruling duke, George Rudolf, was taking steps to promote trade and commerce in his region. Additionally, the fact that the coin was made of silver, a valuable and durable metal, indicates that it was intended to be a reliable and trustworthy form of currency for the people of the region.
