Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Vierzipfliger" coin is that it was used as a form of currency in the medieval period, specifically in the 11th century, and it was issued by the Abbey of Fraumünster in Zurich, Switzerland. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not worth a significant amount, with its value being equivalent to about 1/4 of a Swiss franc in today's currency.
