Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Stüber coin from County of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the German States. The coin was issued during the reign of Adolphus, who was the Count of Bentheim-Tecklenburg-Rheda from 1618 to 1619. This was a period of great upheaval in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place during this time, which had a significant impact on the economy and trade in the region. Despite these challenges, the minting of this coin suggests that the region was still able to produce currency and maintain some level of economic stability during this time.
