Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig coin from Duchy of Bavaria-Ingolstadt is that it was minted during the reign of Stephan III, who was the Duke of Bavaria-Ingolstadt from 1402 to 1413. This coin was made of silver and weighed 0.56 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin at that time. Despite its small size, the coin was widely used in trade and commerce throughout the German States during the early 15th century.
