The central Lübeck arms feature the characteristic double-towered city gate. A circular Latin legend runs along the outer border, reading MARCС · IUBICЕ · STRATVS, separated by decorative stops, with a beaded inner border framing the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lübeck's civic coinage of the mid-sixteenth century reflected the city's stubborn insistence on monetary independence within the Holy Roman Empire — a privilege fiercely defended through its status as a free imperial city and its historic dominance of the Hanseatic League, already in steep decline by 1549. The original mark denomination circulated widely across northern German trade routes where Lübeck's monetary authority still carried practical weight.
The .9999 fineness of this replica is a modern convention — the originals were struck to Lübeck's own civic standard, not a purity that sixteenth-century refiners could reliably achieve or would have bothered to certify.
