Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Dreier 1552 coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S" and "N" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Sigismundus Nurembergensis" (Sigismund of Nuremberg). This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted during the reign of Sigismund, who was the Holy Roman Emperor at the time. This small detail provides a fascinating insight into the history and politics of the time period.
