Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time when the Free Hanseatic City of Lübeck was an independent city-state and a major trading power in the Baltic Sea region. The coin's design and inscriptions reflect the city's wealth and influence, and its silver content and weight were carefully regulated to ensure its value and authenticity.
