Interesting fact

The 2 Thaler coin from the City of Freiburg, minted in 1711, features an image of the city's patron saint, St. George, slaying a dragon on one side, and the coat of arms of the city on the other. This coin was minted during a time when the city was part of the Holy Roman Empire, and it's a great example of the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.
