Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzers coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "A" in the center, which represents the initial of the ruler, Christian Frederick Charles Alexander. This shield is placed above the coat of arms on the obverse side of the coin, and it adds an extra layer of detail and personal touch to the design.
