Free City of Riga. BI Schilling, 1569. 1.04 g. VF/VF. Catalog: Haljak 932.
Historical background: After the collapse of the Livonian Order (1561), Riga briefly asserted itself as a free city before Polish overlordship settled in. The 1560s schillings with castle and city arms reflect this transitional civic coinage tied to both Latvian and Polish collecting interests.
