Interesting fact

The 1 Bausche coin from the Free Imperial City of Aachen (German States) made of Copper, minted in 1597, features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a golden lion on a red background. This shield is placed above the coin's denomination, adding an extra layer of detail and visual interest to the coin's design.
