Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique double portrait of Cajetan of Zinnenberg and Charles of Nordendorf, two prominent figures from the German States, on its obverse side. This distinctive design was a deliberate choice made by the mint to symbolize the unity and cooperation between the two men and their respective territories.
