Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1½ Thaler ND (1580) from Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of Lübeck on the reverse side, which was not present on earlier issues of the coin. This addition was a nod to the city's growing influence and power in the region.
