Interesting fact
The 1½ Pfennig coin from the City of Osnabrück (German States) made of Billon is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1657, during the midst of the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648), which had a profound impact on the German states and their economy. Despite the challenges of this time period, the City of Osnabrück was able to maintain its independence and mint its own coins, such as this 1½ Pfennig billon coin.
