Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 3 Pfennigs - Charles I (Kipper) 1622 from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The Kipper era, which lasted from 1618 to 1623, was marked by a severe economic crisis, including a shortage of coins and a devaluation of the currency. This coin, which was minted in 1622, is a rare example of a coin that was produced during this time period, and its copper composition was likely a result of the scarcity of other metals. Despite its historical significance, the coin is still relatively affordable for collectors, making it a popular choice for those interested in the history of German numismatics.
