Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - a rainbow-colored arc on the reverse side, which is where it gets its name "Regenbogenschüsselchen" (rainbow cup) in German. This design was used to symbolize the unity and diversity of the Vindelici people, who were known for their skilled metalworking and trade networks across Europe.
