Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Kreuzers - Guidobald von Thun 1660 coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg (Austrian States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Thun family, which was added to the obverse (front) side of the coin. This shield was not present on earlier issues of the coin, and its inclusion on this particular coin was likely done to signify the influence and power of the Thun family in the region at the time.
