Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzer 1762 coin from the Free Imperial City of Frankfurt is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" in the center, which represents the city of Frankfurt. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins issued by the German States during the same period and adds to its historical and numismatic significance.
