Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (German States) is that it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Europe. The coin was minted in 1831, just a few years after the Congress of Vienna, which saw the major powers of Europe come together to redraw the political map of the continent following the Napoleonic Wars. This period saw the rise of nationalism and liberalism, and the coin's design reflects this, featuring an image of Frederick Francis I, the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, on one side, and a depiction of a shield with the Mecklenburg coat of arms on the other. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remained in circulation for many years, a testament to the enduring legacy of the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.
