Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political upheaval in the Principality of Anhalt. The coin was issued during the reign of Woldemar VI, who ruled the principality from 1474 to 1487. During his reign, Anhalt faced challenges from neighboring territories and was involved in several conflicts, including the Saxon Fratricidal War. Despite these challenges, the principality was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, such as this 1 Pfennig coin.
