Comment
Minted for FerrariInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Pfennig - Louis I (Pattern) 1839 from Kingdom of Bavaria (German States) made of Gold (.900) weighing 2.90 g is that it was designed by the famous German engraver and medalist, Carl Friedrich Voigt. Voigt was known for his exceptional skill in creating detailed and intricate designs, and his work on the Pattern 1 Pfennig coin is a great example of his craftsmanship. The coin features a portrait of King Louis I of Bavaria on one side and an eagle on the other, both of which were designed by Voigt. This coin is a rare and valuable piece for collectors of German numismatics and is a testament to Voigt's artistic talent and legacy.
