Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Halbschoter coin is that it was minted during the reign of Winrich of Kniprode, who was the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order from 1351 to 1382. The Teutonic Order was a German military order that played a significant role in the crusades and the colonization of Eastern Europe. The coin's design, which features the Order's emblem, the Black Cross, and the Grand Master's name, is a reflection of the Order's influence and power during that time.
