Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 8 Kreuzer 1704 coin from the Free Imperial City of Nuremberg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S" and "N" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Sigillum Nurembergae" or "Seal of Nuremberg". This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted in Nuremberg, and it is a distinctive feature that sets it apart from other coins of the time.
