Interesting fact
The 24 Mariengroschen coin from the City of Brunswick (German States) made of Silver is interesting because it was minted during a time when the city was experiencing significant economic growth and cultural development. The coin's design features the image of the Virgin Mary, which was a common motif on coins during the Renaissance period, and its silver content made it a valuable and sought-after currency in trade and commerce.
