Interesting fact

The 1 Groschen coin from the Duchy of Brunswick (German States) made of Billon (.220 silver) weighing 2.19 g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of William VIII, who was the last Duke of Brunswick before the Duchy was annexed by Prussia in 1866. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a limited number minted during its production run from 1857 to 1860.
