Interesting fact

The 1 Heller coin from the Duchy of Jülich, issued between 1420 and 1423, features an interesting design element - a stylized image of a wild boar on the reverse side. This symbol was chosen to represent the region's rich hunting traditions and the boar's importance in the local economy.
