Interesting fact

The Frederick Ulrich (Kipper) 1621 3 Flitter coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (German States) was made of copper, but it was also one of the first coins to use a unique technique called "Kipper und Wipper" to create a unique design. This technique involved stamping the coin with a series of small, intricate patterns that created a textured effect on the surface of the coin. This technique was used to prevent counterfeiting and to make the coin more easily identifiable.
