Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a representation of the imperial eagle. This shield is placed above the denomination on the coin's obverse (front side), signifying the city's status as a free imperial city within the Holy Roman Empire.
