Interesting fact

The 6 Pfennigs coin from the City of Wiedenbrück (German States) made of Copper is interesting because 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 City of Wiedenbrück continued to mint coins, and the 6 Pfennigs coin remains a testament to the city's resilience and determination during a difficult period in history.
