Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1773 Konventionstaler coin from the Bishopric of Augsburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Fugger family, who were influential bankers and merchant princes in Augsburg at the time. This shield was added to the coin's design as a way to signify the Fugger family's involvement in the minting process and to demonstrate their support for the coin's legitimacy.
