Dudik 260Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Kreuzers coin from the Teutonic Order (German States) is that it features an image of John Casper, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Teutonic Order on the other. This coin was minted during Casper's reign from 1666 to 1670 in the city of Ampringen. Despite its small weight of 2.03 grams, the coin was widely used in trade and commerce during its time.
