Comment

In 1426, at the end of the Livonian Order's monetary reform, the Artig's name was changed to Schilling. Without there being a date on Dietrich III Resler's coins, they could belong on either side of the monetary reform's date-range.

Some sources list the ruler as being Dietrich III Resler, while other sources list the ruler as being Dietrich IV Resler.

It is currently unknown whether this coin belonged to Dietrich Resler or Dietrich Gronow. Once it is established, this page will be updated.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element known as a "vertical lump" or "two-ended" design, where the coin has a raised lump on both the obverse and reverse sides, creating a distinctive shape that sets it apart from other coins of the time.
