Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 4 Mark (Mule) 1646 from Free imperial city of Aachen (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique combination of two different designs on its obverse and reverse sides. The obverse side bears the image of a crowned eagle, while the reverse side features the image of a shield with the city's coat of arms.
