Comment
Cf. M&M Deutschland 28Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Adolphus I, who was the Count of Mark from 1223 to 1248. The County of Mark was a region in Westphalia, Germany, and Adolphus I was a prominent noble during the medieval period. The coin's silver content and weight of 1.30 grams also make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
