Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - a stylized rainbow-colored arc on the reverse side, which gives the coin its name "Regenbogenschüsselchen" (meaning "little rainbow cup" in German). This design was used to symbolize the unity and diversity of the Vindelici people, who were known for their skill in metalworking and trade. The coin's design and craftsmanship have made it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians.
