Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Kreuzers coin from the Archbishopric of Mainz is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "E.J." (for Emmerich Joseph) located above the coat of arms on the reverse side of the coin. This subtle detail highlights the importance of the Archbishop Emmerich Joseph, who played a significant role in the history of the region.
