Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Nassau is that it features a rare combination of two rulers on the same coin. The obverse side of the coin bears the portrait of Frederick August, the last Duke of Nassau, while the reverse side features the image of Frederick William, the Duke of Nassau's son and successor. This unique design was only used for a brief period in 1810, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
