Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing a portrait of Johann Kraus, the founder of the first department store in Eggolsheim, on the obverse (front side), while the reverse (back side) features the town's coat of arms. This design was chosen to commemorate Kraus' contributions to the town's economy and development.
