Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features an image of Louis Rudolph, the ruling duke at the time, on one side, and a crowned shield with the coat of arms of the principality on the other. This coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, and its design reflects the importance of the ruling dynasty and the principality's coat of arms.
