Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "R" in the center, which stands for Rudolph August, the ruler of the principality at the time the coin was minted. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins of the time and adds to its historical and numismatic significance.
