Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Thaler ND (1687) from Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "H" in the center, which represents the city of Hamburg. This shield is placed above the denomination on the reverse side of the coin. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in German history and currency.
