Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Weißpfennig coin from the Bishopric of Münster is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which was added to the coin's design during John of Pfalz-Simmern's reign. This cross was not present on earlier coins from the same mint, making it a distinctive feature of this particular coin.
