Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1572 Münzvereinstaler coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "DB" (for Daniel Brendel) placed above the coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Mainz. This subtle detail highlights the significance of Brendel's contribution to the minting of this coin and serves as a testament to his legacy as a skilled mint master.
