Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features an image of Charles Eugene, the ruler of the duchy from 1737 to 1780, on one side, and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other. The coat of arms includes the motto "Furchtlos und trew" which means "Fearless and loyal" in German. This motto was adopted by Charles Eugene's ancestor, Duke Ulrich of Württemberg, in the 16th century, and it has been featured on many coins and other symbols of the duchy throughout history.
