| Additional information |
Baden's copper Kreuzer coinage of the 1850s was produced under Frederick I, who had assumed regency in 1852 following his father Ludwig's abdication amid the political turbulence that swept the German states after 1848. The mint at Karlsruhe handled production, and these small copper pieces circulated heavily in a region still years away from German monetary unification — the Vereinsmünze agreements were reshaping silver coinage, but the workhorse small copper remained a Baden matter until the empire rendered it obsolete in 1871.
