Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Marck 1707 coin from the Free Imperial City of Aachen is that it features an image of the city's patron saint, Charlemagne, on its obverse side. Charlemagne was a powerful king who ruled over a large portion of Europe in the 8th and 9th centuries and was known for his military conquests, administrative reforms, and promotion of education and religion. His image on the coin serves as a symbol of the city's rich history and cultural heritage.
