Comment
Mintmaster - Johann Christian EberhardtInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Guter Pfenning coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The coin was minted in the early 1770s, just a few years before the outbreak of the American Revolution, and during a period of increased trade and cultural exchange between Europe and the Americas. This coin may have been used in transactions with American colonists or even been carried by travelers and traders on their journeys across the Atlantic.
