Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - the temple with an "X" symbol on the reverse side. This symbol is believed to represent the Archbishopric of Cologne's coat of arms, which was used by the mint in Andernach to signify the coin's origin and authenticity. This feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a distinctive piece of numismatic history.
