Comment

It seems Krause pools several different types under the same KM#6.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features a unique design element - a crescent moon and stars on the reverse side, which was a symbol of the Counts of Schlick family. This design was specifically chosen by Heinrich, the Count of Schlick, who ruled the region from 1623 to 1654. The inclusion of this symbol on the coin was a way for Heinrich to assert his authority and showcase his family's influence in the region.
