Comment
Slg. Piloty 878Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Heller coin from the Bishopric of Würzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "W" in the center, which represents the Bishopric of Würzburg. This shield is placed above the coat of arms of Lorenz of Bibra, the bishop who issued the coin during his reign from 1495 to 1519. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same denomination and time period, making it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in German history and coinage.
