Comments

Lübische means Lübeck-pfennig, which indicates the popularity of foreign coins (specifically those from Lübeck) in the earlier times of Livonian coinage.

Diderick Tork reigned from 1413 to 1415, while Siegfried von Spanheim reigned from 1415 to 1424. It is unknown which of those rulers these Lübisches were minted under.

The solid-cross Lübisches of Wennemar von Brüggeneye (1389-1401), Konrad von Vietinghof (1401-1413), and Siegfried von Spanheim / Diderick Tork (1413-1424) can be difficult to distinguish. The differences are in the legends of both the obverse and the reverse.
