Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Württemberg-Oels (Silesia) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Württemberg, which was added to the obverse (front) side of the coin. This shield was not present on earlier coins of the same denomination, making it a distinctive feature of this particular issue.
