Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Principality of Waldeck-Pyrmont, minted between 1842 and 1845, features an interesting design element - a crowned shield with the initials "GFH" (for George Frederick Henry) on the obverse side, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. This design was a departure from the traditional coat of arms used by the Principality, and was intended to symbolize the unity and strength of the region under the rule of George Frederick Henry.
