Comment
Mintmaster - Martin HoffmannInteresting 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 George Frederick II in 1693 and weighed only 0.28 grams, making it a small but significant piece of currency. Despite its small size, the coin was an important part of the economy in the German States during the 17th century.
