Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Olomouc (Kingdom of Bohemia) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Olomouc, which is surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. This design was used on several coins issued by the Bishopric during this time period, and it symbolizes the authority and power of the Bishopric within the Kingdom of Bohemia.
