Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "P" on the reverse side, which stands for "Paris von Lodron," the name of the bishop who issued the coin. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
