Interesting fact
The 5 Stüber coin from the County of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Adolphus, who was the Count of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda from 1619 to 1622. This was a period of rapid inflation and economic instability, and the minting of coins like the 5 Stüber was a way for the government to try to stabilize the economy and maintain control over the flow of currency. Despite these challenges, the 5 Stüber coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item today, with its silver content and historical significance making it a unique piece of numismatic history.
