Comment
Mintmaster HS - Henning SchreiberInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design element - a hurenkarrentaler, which is a type of shield that includes a boar's head and a hunting horn. This design was used to symbolize the city's coat of arms and its association with hunting and wild game management.
