Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1641-1643 Archbishopric of Bremen 1/16 Thaler coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Bremen, which was a powerful ecclesiastical state in the Holy Roman Empire. This coin was minted during a time of great political and religious upheaval in Europe, and its design reflects the complex power dynamics of the era.
