Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Mariengroschen coin from the Kingdom of Hannover is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in the region. The coin was introduced in 1816, just after the Napoleonic Wars had ended, and it was intended to help stabilize the economy and replace the various local currencies that were in use at the time. Despite the challenges of the period, the coin remained in circulation for several decades and is still sought after by collectors today.
