Un autre exemple de 1589 : l'année est bien visible mais pas la décade qui manque du côté gauche.  Cependant, les grandes croix des années 1580 sont pleines comme sur la photo ci-dessous alors que les grande croix des années 1590 sont constituées de quatre lignes entrecroisées comme sur la photo d'Apuking…

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Archbishopric of Trier is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which was added to the coin's design to indicate that it was minted in the city of Trier. This small cross has become a distinctive feature of coins minted in Trier and is still used on some coins today, making it a recognizable symbol of the city's rich history and cultural heritage.
