Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Groschen coin from the Russian occupation of Eastern Prussia is that it was made of Billon, a metal alloy that contains only 0.288 silver, which is a relatively low percentage of silver compared to other coins of its time. Despite this, the coin still maintained a significant value and was widely used in trade and commerce during its time.
