Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Kreuzer 1622 coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a representation of the imperial eagle. This shield is placed above the denomination, and it signifies the coin's issuance by the city of Nuremberg as a free imperial city within the Holy Roman Empire. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins issued by different German states during the same period.
