Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Duchy of Bavaria is that it was minted during the reign of Maximilian I, who was the first Duke of Bavaria to be granted the title of Elector by the Holy Roman Emperor. This coin was minted as part of a series of reforms that Maximilian implemented to stabilize the Bavarian economy and strengthen the duchy's position within the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's silver content and minimal weight were carefully regulated to ensure consistency and accuracy in trade and commerce.
