Interesting fact
This coin features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "C.M." (Cathedral Chapter of Münster) located above the crown on the obverse (front) side of the coin. This shield was added to the coin's design to indicate the coin's issuing authority and to distinguish it from other coins circulating in the region at the time.
