Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Mark 1679 coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg 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 located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This design element was used on many coins issued by Hamburg during this time period, and it has become a distinctive feature of Hamburg's coinage.
