Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler 1743 coin from the Free City of Augsburg features an image of the city's patron saint, St. Anne, on the obverse (front side), surrounded by the inscription "S.P.Q.R.A." which stands for "Senatus Populusque Romanus Augsburgensis" or "The Senate and People of Rome of Augsburg". This highlights the city's connection to the Roman Empire and its cultural heritage.
