Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Kreuzers - Paris von Lodron 1623 coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg (Austrian States) is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which is not typically found on coins from this region and time period. This cross is believed to have been added as a symbol of the bishop's authority and to signify the coin's connection to the Catholic Church.
