Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ½ Pfennig coin from County of Reuss-Greiz is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "HX" (for Henry XI) surrounded by a wreath. This shield is placed above the coat of arms on the obverse side of the coin, adding an extra layer of detail and symbolism to the design.
