Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers ND (1690) coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S.P.Q.N." (Senatus Populusque Nurembergensis) which represents the Senate and People of Nuremberg. This coin was minted during a time when the city was an independent imperial state within the Holy Roman Empire, and the design element serves as a symbol of the city's autonomy and pride in its civic heritage.
