Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great religious and political upheaval in Europe, particularly in the German States. The Bishopric of Worms, where the coin was minted, was a significant center of power and influence during the Renaissance period, and the coin's design and symbolism likely reflect the political and religious tensions of the time.
