Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Thaler - Adam Frederick of Seinsheim (½ Konventionstaler) 1760 from Bishopric of Würzburg (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" on the reverse side, which stands for "Fürstbistum" (Prince-Bishopric) of Würzburg. This coin was minted during the reign of Adam Frederick, who was the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg from 1755 to 1769. The use of the "F" shield on the coin was a way to signify the coin's origin and authority, and it is a distinctive feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the time.
