Comments

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

The solid-cross Lübisches of Wennemar von Brüggeneye (1389-1401), Konrad von Vietinghof (1401-1413), and Siegfried von Spanheim (1415-1424) can be difficult to distinguish. The differences are in the legends of both the obverse and the reverse.
