Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Dicker Penning - Enno II ND (1534-1539) coin from County of East Frisia is that it features a unique combination of symbols and letters on its reverse side. The coin bears the image of a double-headed eagle, which was a common motif in medieval European coinage, but it also features a pair of crescent moons and a star above the eagle's heads. This distinctive design was likely meant to represent the county's coat of arms or a local legend, and it sets the coin apart from other coins of the time.
