Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 30 Kreuzers coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Salzburg, which was added to the reverse side of the coin in 1757. This shield was not present on earlier issues of the coin, making it a distinctive feature of this particular issue.
