Comment
Slg Wilmersdörffer 913Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" in the center, which stands for "Friedrich," the German name for John Frederick, the ruler after whom the coin is named. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by the inscription "IOHANNES FREDERICUS MARGRAVIUS BRANDENBURGensis" (John Frederick, Margrave of Brandenburg). This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a notable piece in the history of numismatics.
