Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Kopfstück coin featuring Francis George of Shönborn is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Archbishopric of Trier. The coin was issued in 1734, just a few years after the end of the War of the Polish Succession, which had a significant impact on the region's economy and political landscape. Despite these challenges, the coin's silver content and intricate design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
