Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Kreuzers coin from the Lordship of Haldenstein (Grisons) is that it features a unique design element - a stylized letter "T" on the obverse side, which represents the name of the ruler, Thomas I. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
