Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Landgraviate of Leuchtenberg, minted during the reign of John III (1430-1458), is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was also relatively small in size, weighing only 0.41 grams, making it a compact and portable form of currency. Additionally, the fact that it was a standard circulation coin suggests that it was widely used and circulated among the people of the German States during that time period.
