Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the Duchy of Brunswick (German States) made of Copper and weighing 1.5g is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in Germany. The coin was minted in 1859-1860, a period when the German states were in the process of unifying under a single government, which ultimately led to the formation of the German Empire in 1871. This coin is a tangible reminder of that significant historical event.
