Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ⅓ Thaler coin from the Archbishopric of Cologne is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Archbishopric, which is surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was used to signify the coin's issuance by the Archbishopric and to distinguish it from other coins circulating in the region.
