Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1½ Thaler coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "S" and "L" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Sigillum Libertatis" (Seal of Freedom) and represents the city's independence and sovereignty.
