Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Livonian Order, a military order of German knights who ruled over the territory of Livonia (present-day Estonia and Latvia) in the 13th to 16th centuries. The coin features a decorative shield on the reverse side, which was a common feature of coins minted by the Livonian Order.
