Interesting fact
The 1 Pfennig coin from the Bishopric of Passau, minted during the reign of Ulrich of Nussdorf (1451-1460), features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of the time. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of a bishop's mitre, which symbolizes the authority of the Bishop of Passau. The reverse side features a cross fleury, which was a common motif in medieval coinage and represents the Christian faith. The use of these symbols highlights the close relationship between the church and the state during this period.
