Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Pfenning coin from the Cathedral chapter of Münster (German States) made of Copper is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The late 18th century saw the rise of the Enlightenment and the French Revolution, which had a profound impact on the feudal systems and traditional power structures of the time. The minting of this coin, which was used for everyday transactions, reflects the efforts of the Cathedral chapter of Münster to maintain economic stability and continuity during this period of upheaval.
