Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Körtling coin from the Bishopric of Würzburg is that it features an image of Adam Frederick of Seinsheim, who was the Prince-Bishop of Würzburg from 1764 to 1769. The coin was minted during his reign and bears his likeness on one side, while the other side features the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Würzburg. This coin is a rare and valuable example of a standard circulation coin from the German States during the 18th century.
