Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Bishopric of Bamberg is that it features a unique design, with Henry I of Bilversheim depicted on one side and the Bamberg Cathedral on the other. This coin was minted during Henry's reign as Bishop of Bamberg from 1242 to 1245, and its silver content and small weight make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists today.
