Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Württemberg-Oels (Silesia) is that it features an image of Christian Ulrich von Bernstadt, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and the coat of arms of the duchy on the other. This coin was minted between 1695 and 1702 and was made of silver, weighing 1.45 grams. It's a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of European coinage.
