Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Pfennigs coin from the Free City of Augsburg (German States) made of Copper and weighing 3.2g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Emperor Joseph II, who was known for his efforts to modernize and centralize the Habsburg Monarchy. This coin, along with other coins issued during this period, played an important role in facilitating trade and commerce across the German States and beyond.
