Interesting fact
The 1 Witten coin from the City of Oldesloe (German States) was minted in 1389 and made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time. The coin weighs 1.22 grams, which is relatively light compared to other coins of similar value. This suggests that the minting process used a combination of metals, such as silver and copper, to create the coin, which was a common practice during that time period.
