Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 6 Pfennigs coin from the City of Goslar (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.15g is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Frederick the Great, who was the King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. During his reign, Prussia underwent significant economic and military reforms, which helped to establish the country as a major power in Europe. The coin's design, which features an image of a crowned eagle on one side and the number 6 on the other, reflects the political and economic changes that were taking place during this time.
