Principality of Liechtenstein
Dating back to 1719, the Principality of Liechtenstein is bordered by Switzerland and Austria. It was a principality under the Holy Roman Empire and later with the Austrian Empire until World War I.
In the 1924, Liechtenstein entered in a customs union with Switzerland and adopted the Swiss franc.
In the 1700s, Liechtenstein minted gold ducats and silver thalers. In 1898, it adopted the krone [Pending - why 1898?]. The silver krone matched the LMU standard, but the gold 20 kroner had a higher gold content than the 20, the gold coins also matched.
