Comment
F.u.S. 2940Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin featuring Charles Ferdinand Vasa, made of silver and issued by the Bishopric of Breslau (Silesia) in 1654, is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe. The Thirty Years War had recently ended, leaving many regions, including Silesia, in a state of political and economic instability. Despite these challenges, the coin's minting was a testament to the region's resilience and determination to maintain economic stability through the production of high-quality currency.
