Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element known as the "Rainbow Bowl" or "Regenbogenschüsselchen" in German. This feature is a small, rounded indentation on the coin's surface that creates a rainbow-colored effect when light hits it at a certain angle. This design element was used on a variety of coins during this time period and is considered a distinctive characteristic of ancient Vindelician coinage.
