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 crown 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 Holy Roman Empire.
