Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the visit of the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand II, to the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg in 1612. The coin's design features an image of the Emperor on one side and the Nuremberg coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the city's loyalty to the Empire.
