Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 3 Pfenning coin from the Principality of Anhalt-Bernburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" in the center, which stands for "Friedrich," the name of the ruling prince at the time, Victor II Frederick. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This distinctive feature sets the coin apart from other coins of the same denomination and time period, making it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
