Feuchtwanger Coinage refers to a set of experimental coins created by inventor Johann Peter Feuchtwanger in the early 19th century, primarily during the 1830s. These coins were designed as a response to the coin shortage in the United States and featured denominations such as the 3-cent Feuchtwanger piece, often made of a brass alloy. The coins are notable for their distinctive designs, which include a portrait of Liberty and various symbolic elements, and are sought after by collectors due to their historical significance and rarity.
