Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Kreuzer coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1725, during the reign of Johann Konrad II von Reinach-Hirzbach, who was the Prince-Bishop of Basel. This was a period of significant economic growth and trade, and the coin was likely used extensively in local commerce. Additionally, the coin's minting was overseen by the Bishopric of Basel, which was an independent state within the Holy Roman Empire, giving it a unique historical and cultural significance.
