Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Witten ND (1400) from Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.17 g is that it was minted during a time when Lübeck was an important trading center in the Baltic Sea region. The city was a member of the Hanseatic League, a powerful mercantile and cultural organization that dominated trade in the region for centuries.
