Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1647 2 Thalers coin from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S.P.Q.F." (Senatus Populusque Francofurtanus) which represents the senate and people of Frankfurt. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political significance for the city, as it was a major trading center in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's design and symbolism reflect the city's pride in its independence and prosperity.
