Comment
Previously KM# 141Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Schilling coin from the Free Hanseatic city of Hamburg (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued between 1702 and 1705, a period when the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading federation of cities in Northern Germany and the Baltic region, was facing decline and competition from other European powers. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, serving as a testament to the economic and cultural achievements of the region during that time.
