The Prague Groschen was a widely used coin in Europe during the Middle Ages, and it was issued by the City of Prague in the 14th century. The coin was made of silver and had a unique design, featuring the image of a lion on one side and the coat of arms of the City of Prague on the other. The coin was counterstamped with the letters "ND" which stand for "Nicolaus Dives," indicating that it was issued during the reign of King Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia. The Prague Groschen was an important trade coin and was used in many European countries, including Germany, where it was known as the "Groschen."
