Interesting fact

The 1 Pfennig coin from the County of Stolberg-Stolberg, made of silver, is interesting because it was issued during a time when the German States were still using a variety of different currencies, and the 1 Pfennig denomination was not yet a standardized unit of currency across all of Germany. This coin, issued in 1623, features Wolfgang George, the ruling count of Stolberg-Stolberg, and its silver content makes it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists today.
