Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features an image of Charles Eugene, the ruler of the duchy from 1737 to 1783, on one side, and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other. This coin was minted in 1746 and was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. The use of silver in coinage was a common practice in many parts of Europe during this period, as it was seen as a symbol of wealth and prosperity. The fact that this coin was minted during Charles Eugene's reign suggests that it may have been used as a way to promote his image and reinforce his authority as a ruler.
