Interesting fact

The coin features an image of the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles VI, on one side, and the Nuremberg coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the Holy Roman Empire was facing significant political and economic challenges, including the War of the Polish Succession and the rise of rival powers such as Prussia and Austria. Despite these challenges, the Nuremberg mint continued to produce high-quality coins like this one, which were widely used in trade and commerce throughout the German States.
