Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Heller "Vierschlag Pfennig" coin from the Duchy of Bavaria is that it features a unique design element known as a "viereschlag" or "quatrefoil" cross, which is a cross with four clover-like leaves at the ends. This design was used on many coins during the Renaissance period and was meant to symbolize the Holy Roman Empire. The use of this symbol on the coin highlights the close connection between the Duchy of Bavaria and the Holy Roman Empire during this time.
