The oldest coins of Iserlohn date from the early 13<sup>th</sup> century and show a city wall with three towers. Later that century the middle tower was replaced by St. Pancratius, the patron saint of the city. In the early 14<sup>th</sup> century this composition was placed on the seal. In the 16<sup>th</sup> century the composition was placed in a shield to form the present arms. The chequered bar below the city wall is derived from the arms of the Counts of the Mark, who founded the city. | The oldest coins of Iserlohn date from the early 13<sup>th</sup> century and show a city wall with three towers.
