Comments

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

The Lübische pieces of Dietrich II Damerow (1379-1400), Heinrich II Wrangel (1400-1410), Bernhard II Bülow (1410-1413), and Dietrich III Resler (1413-1441) can be difficult to distinguish. While the legend is a good indicator, it can sometimes be blurred or illegible. With that being said, the designs on each ruler's coins are slightly different, varying in size and style.
