Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler 1545 from City of Schwäbisch Hall (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a depiction of a wild man, also known as a "Wildmann," holding a club and a shield with the city's emblem. This symbol was used to represent the city's independence and sovereignty.
