Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers 1625 coin from the Free City of Augsburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S.A." (for "St. Augsburg") located above the coat of arms on the reverse side of the coin. This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted in Augsburg, a free imperial city in the Holy Roman Empire. This detail highlights the coin's historical significance and the importance of Augsburg as a center of trade and commerce during that time.
