Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 32 Schilling (Gulden) 1758 coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Lübeck is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the typical depiction of a coat of arms or other symbol of the city, this coin features an image of a sailing ship, which reflects Lübeck's status as a major trading port and its strong maritime tradition.
