Comment
Similar to KM#151 (value on obverse).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Chur (Grisons) made of Billon is that it features a unique design element - a stylized letter "V" on the reverse side, which represents the Grisons region. This letter "V" is not commonly found on other coins from the same time period, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
