Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Charles III Joseph of Lorraine, who was the Duke of Lorraine and Bar, as well as the King of Hungary and Croatia.
