Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Pfennig - Wilhelm I (Pattern) ND (1873-1889) from Germany (1871-1948) made of Copper weighing 1.76g is that it was designed by the German engraver and artist, Julius Troschel. Troschel was a prominent figure in the field of numismatics and his designs were widely recognized and respected during his time. The coin features a portrait of Wilhelm I, the first German Emperor, on the obverse side, and an eagle on the reverse side. The coin was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Germany, and its design reflects the country's shift towards a more modern and unified identity.
