Comment

Lübische means Lübeck-pfennig, which indicates the popularity of foreign coins (specifically those from Lübeck) in the earlier times of Livonian coinage.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique hollow cross design, which was a distinctive feature of the Livonian Order's coinage during this period.
