Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2½ Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Eichstätt is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "R.A." inside, which stands for Raimund Anthony of Strasoldo, the bishop who commissioned the coin. This personal touch adds a distinctive flair to the coin and sets it apart from other coins of the time.
