Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Schilling - Bogislaw X (Stettin) 1499 coin from the Duchy of Pomerania is that it features a unique design element - a shield with the coat of arms of the Pomeranian dukes, which was not commonly used on coins of that time. This makes it a distinctive and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the German States.
