Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 60 Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Speyer is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "S" on the reverse side, which stands for "Speyer". This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate its origin and authenticity, and it is a distinctive feature that sets it apart from other coins of the same era.
