Interesting fact
The 3 Pfennige coin from the Principality of Waldeck-Pyrmont, minted between 1824 and 1825, features a unique design element - a small shield with the initials "GFH" (for George Frederick Henry) located above the crown on the obverse side. This subtle detail sets it apart from other coins of the same denomination and era, making it a prized collector's item for numismatists.
