Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Reichsguldiner coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features an image of the Imperial Eagle on one side and the coat of arms of Nuremberg on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Holy Roman Empire was still in existence, and the Imperial Eagle was a symbol of the empire's authority and power. The inclusion of the Nuremberg coat of arms on the coin highlights the city's status as a free imperial city, which gave it a certain level of autonomy and independence within the empire.
