Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the County of Mark (German States) is that it features an image of Engelbert III, who was the Count of Mark from 1347 to 1391. He was a powerful noble during the Holy Roman Empire and played a significant role in the political and military events of his time. The coin's design, which includes Engelbert's image, was likely meant to symbolize the county's allegiance to the Holy Roman Empire and to showcase the count's authority and influence.
