It indicates that the piece is of 2 taler weight. This is pretty typical of how these early pieces were marked. Sometimes they're of similar diameter but different thicknesses so the mark made it easy to tell the different denomination apart.

I love that 1 Connie. The original toning and the classic design of the Phoenix.
Thanks for the thrill...

This one cost me a pretty penny too. Please note, the white spots are on the plastic covering the coin, not the coin itself. Bought it a couple of years ago.

Not counting ancients (hee hee), my most expensive is actually a recent acquisition in a new collecting area for me:
