Interesting fact
The 6 Kreuzers coin from Brandenburg-Franconia, minted during the reign of George (1530-1531), was part of a series of coins that were minted to commemorate the Protestant Reformation. The coin features an image of George on one side and a depiction of the Crucifixion on the other, symbolizing the religious upheaval that was taking place in Europe during that time.
