Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Electors of the Palatinate, minted during the reign of Philip I (1477-1508), features an image of the Elector's coat of arms on the obverse side, which includes a shield with a crescent moon and a star above it. This design was meant to symbolize the Elector's connection to the Holy Roman Empire and his role as a powerful prince-elector.
