Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfenning coin from the Electorate of Bavaria (German States) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was minted in 1793-1794, during the reign of Charles Theodor, who was the Elector of Bavaria at the time. This period saw the rise of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, which had a significant impact on the political and economic landscape of Europe. The coin's design, which features an image of Charles Theodor on one side and the Bavarian coat of arms on the other, reflects the political and cultural influences of the time.
