Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 16 Schilling coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the city's coat of arms, which includes a hanseatic cross, a symbol of the city's membership in the Hanseatic League. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins issued by the German States during the same period.
