Comment
Ostheim mintInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Eisenach is that it features a unique design element known as the "Kipper" mintmark. The Kipper mintmark is a small letter "K" or "k" that appears on the coin's obverse (front) side, and it indicates that the coin was minted at the Kipper mint in the city of Eisenach. The Kipper mint was only operational for a short period of time, from 1621 to 1624, which makes coins bearing this mintmark relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors.
