Interesting fact
The 4 Pfennigs coin from the Cathedral chapter of Münster (German States) made of Copper weighing 1.5g was minted during a time when the Holy Roman Empire was still in existence. The coin features the image of the Bishop of Münster on one side and the coat of arms of the Cathedral chapter on the other. This coin was used as a means of payment for everyday transactions and was widely used in the region. Despite its small denomination, it is now a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
