Interesting fact
The 24 kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Palatinate-Neuburg, minted in 1622 during the reign of Wolfgang William (also known as Kipper), features an interesting design element - a stylized image of a kipper, a type of fish, on the reverse side. This unique design was likely included as a play on the ruler's name, "Kipper," and serves as a distinctive feature of the coin.
