Interesting fact
The 2 Albus coin from the Archbishopric of Cologne, minted between 1657 and 1659, features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Archbishopric on the reverse side. This shield was added to the coin's design to signify the authority and power of the Archbishopric, and it sets the coin apart from other coins minted during the same period.
