Comment
Minted in NeuhausInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1767 Konventionstaler coin from the Bishopric of Paderborn is that it features a unique design element - a small image of a horse and rider on the reverse side, which represents the coat of arms of the Bishopric. This design was not commonly found on other coins of the time, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
