Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the County of Mark (German States) is that it was minted during the reign of Adolphus IV, who was the Count of Mark from 1398 to 1422. This coin was made of silver and weighed 0.82 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin was widely used in trade and commerce throughout the German States during the late medieval period.
