Interesting fact
The 6 Kreuzer coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg (German States) made of Billon is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the Napoleonic Wars, which had a significant impact on trade and commerce in the region. The use of Billon, a copper and silver alloy, was a common practice during this time period due to the scarcity of precious metals. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin still maintains a level of craftsmanship and beauty, showcasing the skill of the mint masters and engravers who created it.
