1/4 Stüber of Clemens August, 1742


Details
What could it buy?
In Antwerp in 1780 a labourer usually earned 8 to 10 stuivers a day, or 32 to 40 liards. A publication from that year said a family needed 12 stuivers a day.
For this period in general, not for this coin in particular.
The story
1/4 Stüber from 1742, issued in the Archbishopric of Cologne under Clemens August. So worn that the inscriptions are illegible.
