Interesting fact
The 1 Weißpfennig coin from the Duchy of Jülich-Berg, minted during the reign of Gerhard II (1437-1475), features a unique design element - a small cross symbol located above the crown on the obverse side of the coin. This cross is believed to have been added to the design to signify the coin's purity and authenticity, as it was a common practice during that time period to add small marks or symbols to coins to indicate their quality and value.
