<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mrweaseluv, post: 17627678, member: 40340&quot;]My understanding is that the original 3 cent pieces were created to ease the sale of &quot;postage&quot; and eliminate the need to make change (as there was a major shortage of small coinage at the time.) as for the Feuchtwanger those were created to do 3 things... ease that coin shortage, introduce the &quot;alloy&quot; that was used to produce the Feuchtwanger&#039;s (the mint decided against this) and lastly as an outright &quot;storecard&quot; token to advertise the store...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
