Interesting fact
The coin features an image of the Holy Roman Emperor, Ferdinand III, on one side, and the Nuremberg coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, with the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) taking place, which makes it a unique piece of history.
