Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Electorate of Saxony (Albertinian Line) is that it was made of Billon, a type of alloy that was commonly used in the production of coins during that time period. Billon is a mixture of silver and copper, and it was used to create a coin that was both durable and had a lower cost of production compared to coins made of pure silver. This allowed for the production of coins that were more affordable for the general population, while still maintaining a level of quality and durability.
