Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Pfennigs (Kipper) coin from the Bishopric of Paderborn is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), a conflict that devastated much of Germany and disrupted trade and commerce. Despite these challenges, the Bishopric of Paderborn was able to maintain its independence and continue minting coins, such as the 4 Pfennigs Kipper, which were used for everyday transactions. This coin is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people of Paderborn during a time of great upheaval.
