Comment
Slg. Dummler 152Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1537 Brömsenthaler from Lübeck is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the city of Lübeck, which was not present on earlier versions of the coin. This addition was a nod to the city's growing influence and power within the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading confederation of cities in Northern Europe.
