The 50 Pfennigs coin from Freising-München features a unique design by Anton Schlüter, a German artist and engraver who was known for his work on various coins and medals during the early 20th century. The coin's design depicts a stylized image of a horse and rider, with the city's coat of arms in the background. This design was specifically chosen to represent the city's rich history and culture, as well as its connection to the Bavarian region.
