Interesting fact

The 4 Kreuzers coin from County of Montfort-Peggau (German States) made of Silver weighing 2.43g was minted during the reign of Anthony III, who was the Count of Montfort-Peggau from 1686 to 1708. The coin features an image of Anthony III on one side and the coat of arms of Montfort-Peggau on the other. It's interesting to note that the coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, with the rise of trade and commerce, and the coin's design reflects the influence of these changes.
