Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig - Lamprecht of Brunn ND (1374-1399) coin from the Bishopric of Bamberg (German States) is that it features a unique design element - a crescent moon and stars on the reverse side, which was a common motif in medieval coinage but not typically found on coins from this region. This suggests that the coin may have been influenced by Islamic or Jewish coinage, which commonly featured crescent moons, and highlights the cultural exchange and diversity of influences present in medieval Europe.
