One interesting fact about the 12 Pfennigs - Ernest III (Kipper) ND (1621) coin from County of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The County of Holstein-Schaumburg-Pinneberg was a small state within the Holy Roman Empire, and the coinage of this time period reflects the political and economic influences of the region. The use of silver in the coinage was a significant change from previous coins, which were often made of copper or other base metals. The switch to silver coinage was likely a response to the growing economy and trade in the region, as well as the increasing demand for a more reliable and valuable currency. This coin is a unique piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political climate of the time.
