Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler ND (1580) from Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck (German States) made of Silver weighing 28.15g is that it features a unique design that reflects the city's rich history and culture. The obverse side of the coin depicts the city's coat of arms, which includes a shield with a hanseatic cross, a symbol of the city's membership in the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading confederation that dominated trade in the Baltic Sea region during the Middle Ages. The reverse side of the coin features a image of a ship, which represents Lübeck's strong maritime tradition and its role as a major trading hub. The coin's design serves as a reminder of the city's rich history and its importance in the region's economic and cultural development.
