Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" on the reverse side, which stands for "Franz Anton von Harrach," the ruler of the bishopric at the time the coin was minted. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same denomination and era, making it a prized collector's item among numismatists.
