Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 24 Mariengroschen coin from the Bishopric of Hildesheim is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric, which was added to the reverse side of the coin in 1695. This shield was not present on earlier versions of the coin, and it was a distinctive feature that helped to distinguish the Hildesheim Mariengroschen from other similar coins circulating in the German States at the time.
