Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the death of Francis George of Schönborn, who was the Archbishop of Trier from 1729 until his death in 1756. The coin's design features an image of Schönborn on one side and an image of the Trier Cathedral on the other. The coin's small size and silver content make it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the German States.
