Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing a stylized image of a horse and rider on the obverse (front side), while the reverse (back side) bears the denomination and the town's coat of arms. This design was created by the artist Johann Kraus, who was known for his work in the field of numismatics and was responsible for designing many coins during his career. This particular coin is a rare example of Kraus' work and is highly sought after by collectors.
