Comment
Coins produced during the devaluation "Kipper" period related to the year war. It value to the Thaler was in fact much lower.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kipper Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "P" in the center, which represents the city of Paris. This is because the coin was minted during the reign of Paris von Lodron, who was the Prince-Bishop of Salzburg from 1619 to 1653. The inclusion of the shield with the letter "P" is a nod to von Lodron's name and his connection to the city of Paris.
