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 hole in the center of the coin. This hole was intentionally added to the coin's design to signify that it was made of copper, a less valuable metal than other coins made of silver or gold. This design element was used on many coins from the Bishopric of Salzburg during this time period, and it serves as a distinctive feature that sets them apart from other coins of similar value.
