Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers ND (1711) 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 city's motto "Senate and People of Nuremberg" in Latin. This motto was used to signify the city's independence and self-governance during the Holy Roman Empire.
