Interesting fact

The 1 Witten coin from the County of East Frisia, minted during the reign of Enno II (1528-1540), is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was also relatively small, weighing only 0.6 grams, making it easy to handle and transport. Despite its small size, the coin was still considered a standard circulation coin and was widely used in the German States during the 16th century.
