Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 4 Kreuzers coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1715, during the reign of William Frederick, who was the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach from 1703 until his death in 1723. This was a period of significant economic growth and development in the region, with the establishment of new trade routes and industries, and the expansion of existing ones. The coin itself is made of silver and weighs 2.4 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
