Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Weißpfennig coin from the Duchy of Jülich is that it features a unique design element - a small cross symbol located above the shield on the obverse side of the coin. This cross is believed to have been added to the design to signify the coin's connection to the Christian faith and to symbolize the duchy's allegiance to the Church. This small detail provides a fascinating insight into the cultural and religious context of the time period in which the coin was minted.
