Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig - Ochsenfurt ND coin was minted in 1975, and it features an image of a bull on its obverse side, which is where the name "Ochsenfurt" (ox ford) comes from. The city of Ochsenfurt was named after a ford in the River Main where oxen were said to have crossed. The bull image on the coin is a nod to the city's name and history.
