Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig ND (1380-1420) coin from the City of Strasbourg (French States) is that it was made of Billon, a type of alloy that was commonly used in medieval Europe for coinage. Billon is a mixture of silver and base metals, such as copper or tin, and was used to create a coin that was less expensive to produce than a solid silver coin. Despite being made of a less valuable material, the 1 Pfennig coin still held significant value in its time and was widely used in trade and commerce.
