Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1½ Thaler coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which is surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. This design was used to signify the city's independence and sovereignty.
