Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 60 Kreuzer coin from the Duchy of Württemberg is that it features a unique design element - a deer (Hirsch in German) on the reverse side, which is where the coin's nickname "Hirschgulden" comes from. This design was a nod to the region's rich hunting traditions and the importance of deer hunting to the local economy.
