Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from County of Fugger-Babenhausen-Wellenburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "M" and "F" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for the House of Fugger and the County of Wellenburg. This shield was added to the coin's design to signify the union between the two families and their territories.
