Comment
Mintmaster - Johann Jacob EbenauerInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Margraviate of Brandenburg-Ansbach is that it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was issued during the reign of Charles William Frederick, who was the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach from 1754 to 1757. The use of silver in the coin's minting process was a deliberate choice, as it was a symbol of wealth and power, and it was also more resistant to wear and tear than other metals. This coin's unique blend of history, rarity, and craftsmanship makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
