Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Mark coin from the Free Hanseatic City of Hamburg (German States) is that it features a unique design that reflects the city's rich history and culture. The obverse side of the coin depicts a portrait of Saint Peter, the patron saint of Hamburg, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Hamburg coat of arms, which includes a shield with three towers and a crown. This design was used on many coins issued by Hamburg during this time period and has become a recognizable symbol of the city.
