Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Stebler - Johann III von Vienne ND (1366-1382) coin from the Bishopric of Basel is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which is not typically found on coins from this region and time period. This cross is believed to have been added as a symbol of the bishop's authority and may have been used to validate the coin's authenticity.
