1 Kreuzer

Ulm maintained its status as a Free Imperial City until Napoleon dissolved the Holy Roman Empire's remaining structures and handed the city to Bavaria in 1802. These kreuzers were struck less than three decades before that end — municipal copper coinage from a city that had been self-governing since the thirteenth century. The 1772–1773 date range likely reflects a single contracted minting run rather than continuous production, a common arrangement for smaller imperial cities that lacked permanent mint facilities of their own.
