Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 48 Klippe Kreuzer coin from the City of Breisach is that it was used as a form of emergency currency during the Thirty Years' War. The coin was minted in 1633, during a time of economic hardship and political instability, and its use helped to facilitate trade and commerce in the region. Despite its relatively low value, the coin played an important role in the local economy and is now highly sought after by collectors for its historical significance.
