FLITTER 1621
Interesting fact
The 3 Flitter coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, minted in 1621 during the reign of Frederick Ulrich (also known as Kipper), was made of copper, but it was also one of the first coins in Europe to use a milled edge, which was a new technology at the time. This innovation helped to prevent counterfeiting and made the coin more durable.
