Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc is that it features an image of Charles II of Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn, who was a prominent Catholic bishop and a member of the powerful Liechtenstein family. The coin was minted in 1693, during a time when the Kingdom of Bohemia was undergoing significant political and religious changes, and the coin's design reflects the religious influences of the time. The use of silver in the coin's minting also speaks to the value placed on this precious metal during the period.
