Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Augsburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of the coins minted during Clemens Wenzeslaus' reign.
