Interesting fact
The ¼ Thaler coin from the Free City of Augsburg, minted in 1713, is interesting because it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S.A." (for "St. Augsburg") located above the coat of arms of Augsburg. This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted in the Free City of Augsburg, which was an independent city-state within the Holy Roman Empire. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin from this time period and region, and its unique design makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
