Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from Stadtlengsfeld is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage in Germany during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Copper was chosen for its durability and resistance to corrosion, making it an ideal material for coins that were intended to be used extensively in circulation. The use of copper in coinage also gave the coins a distinctive reddish-brown color that was easily recognizable and helped to distinguish them from other denominations.
