Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Paris von Lodron, the Bishop of Salzburg, on one side, and the Salzburg coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during von Lodron's reign as bishop from 1633 to 1644 and is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
