Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Heller coin from the Landgraviate of Leuchtenberg is that it features a unique combination of two rulers, Frederick V and Louis I, on its obverse side. This is a rare example of a coin that depicts two co-rulers, which was a common practice in some German states during the Middle Ages.
