Bohemian Revolt
12 Kreutzer 1620
Technologically interesting specimen documenting historical minting techniques. A slight tilt during the strike caused an uneven relief depth and minor eccentricity of the planchet. One half of the coin exhibits a significantly deeper strike, vividly illustrating the specifics of historical coinage production.
