Interesting fact

The 2 Mark coin from the Free Imperial City of Aachen (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.55g is interesting because it was minted during a time when the Holy Roman Empire was still in existence, and the Free Imperial Cities were a group of cities that were directly subordinate to the Emperor and had a certain level of autonomy. This coin is a tangible piece of history that represents the economic and political landscape of that time.
