Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, known as the Thirty Years War (1618-1648). This conflict had a profound impact on the German States, including the County of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rochefort, where this coin was minted. Despite the challenges of war, the county was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, such as this 1 Denier, 1 Pfennig coin.
