Interesting fact

The 1 Pfenning coin from the Duchy of Brunswick (German States) made of Copper and weighing 1.9g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of George IV (1822-1823) and features an image of the duke on one side and the coat of arms of Brunswick on the other. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin in the German States during that time and is now a rare and valuable collector's item.
