Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Ducats coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Hohenems family, which was added to the coin's reverse side to commemorate Markus Sittikus von Hohenems, the Prince-Bishop of Salzburg who commissioned the coin's minting.
