Interesting fact
The 3 Kreuzer coin from Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Principality of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort was a small state within the German States, and the coin was minted during the height of the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on trade and commerce in Europe. Despite these challenges, the coin was made of silver, indicating the value and wealth of the Principality at the time.
