Interesting fact

The 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Sagan (Silesia) featuring Albrecht von Wallenstein is notable for its unique design. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Wallenstein, a prominent military leader and statesman during the Thirty Years' War, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of the Duchy of Sagan. What's interesting is that the coat of arms is depicted in a unique way, with the shield being held by two angels, which is not a common motif in coin design. This distinctive feature makes the coin stand out among other coins from the same era and region.
