Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler coin from the Bishopric of Würzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Ehrenberg family, which was added to the coin's reverse side to signify the rule of Philip Adolph of Ehrenberg. This shield is not found on other coins from the same era, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
