Interesting fact
The 1 Pfennig coin from the Burgraviate of Nuremberg, minted during the reign of Frederick V (Langenzenn) between 1361 and 1388, features a unique design element - a stylized image of a lion on the obverse side. This lion symbol was a nod to the coat of arms of the Hohenzollern family, who ruled the Burgraviate at the time. The use of this image signified the connection between the ruling family and the coinage, and it became a distinctive feature of Nuremberg's coinage during this period.
