Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Heller coin from the Landgraviate of Hessen-Marburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "L" (for Louis) above the crown on the obverse side. This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was issued during the reign of Louis IV, who ruled the Landgraviate from 1567 to 1604. This subtle detail provides a distinctive characteristic for the coin and helps collectors and historians identify it as a specific issue from a particular time period.
