Mark:
Money. Normally means the silver mark, a measure of silver, generally eight ounces, accepted throughout medieval western Europe. Although they were sometimes "clipped" or "debased," the English silver penny contained a standard weight of silver and so could be traded across Europe. In England the mark was worth thirteen shillings and four pence, ie. two thirds of £1. Equivalent to present value of the Euro.

No idea, go to a good auction house like Sotherbys or Christies and ask if they will do a free valuation. Ask at museums too. Don't sell it until you have an expert opinion on it's value. It's value is what someone is willing to pay. So even the figure the valuer gives you will probably be wrong. The only way to be sure of the value is to submit it for sale in a specialised auction for similar coins. The collectors, investors and experts will be there - bidding against one another - that decides the real value. What they are willing to pay for it. It has very good historical value. A museum would probably be very interested.
