Livonian monetary history
The first coins minted in Livonia date back to the 13th century, when the Livonian Order and the local bishoprics began issuing their own pieces. The Riga mark became the main monetary unit, subdividing into shillings and pfennigs. During the Polish-Lithuanian rule in the 16th century, the Polish złoty was introduced, while the later Swedish domination brought the riksdaler as a reference coin.
Relevant historical milestones.
One of the most significant events in Livonian numismatic history was the Livonian War (1558-1583), which led to great monetary instability and the minting of emergency coins.
