Interesting fact
The 3 Pfennigs 1619 coin from the City of Wiedenbrück (German States) made of Copper is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and the country was in the process of rebuilding and recovering. The coin's issuance reflects the efforts of the city of Wiedenbrück to reestablish its economy and trade networks during this time. Additionally, the use of copper as the material for the coin was a common practice during this period, as it was a readily available and affordable metal. This coin is a small but fascinating piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political climate of Germany during the 17th century.
