Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig 1747 coin from the City of Rostock (German States) made of Copper is interesting because it was issued during a time when the city was an important member of the Hanseatic League, a powerful trading confederation in Northern Europe. The coin's design, which features the city's coat of arms and a crowned shield, reflects the city's pride in its membership and its commitment to trade and commerce.
