Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 3 Kreuzers - Karl Friedrich 1708-1709 from Duchy of Württemberg-Oels (Silesia) made of Silver is that it features an image of Karl Friedrich, the Duke of Württemberg-Oels, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the influences of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting process was a significant departure from the more commonly used copper and nickel coins of the time, making it a unique and valuable piece in the history of numismatics.
