Interesting fact

The Dreiling coin from the City of Wismar (German States) made of Silver has a unique feature. It has a triangular shape, which was a distinctive characteristic of coins minted in the city during the 14th century. This triangular shape was used to prevent the coin from being easily counterfeited, as it was difficult to produce fake coins with this unique shape.
