Interesting fact
The 1 Pfennig coin from the Free City of Regensburg (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.25g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the late 18th century, a period of Enlightenment and Revolution, and its design reflects the political and economic shifts that were taking place at the time. The coin's silver content and minimal weight also make it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of European currency.
