Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Pfennig - Albert II (Vienna) ND (1330-1358) from Duchy of Austria (Austrian States) made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Albert II, who was the Duke of Austria from 1330 to 1358. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin from the Austrian States during this time period, as most coins minted during this time were made of base metals. The use of silver in the coin's minting process indicates that it was a high-value coin, likely used for large transactions or as a store of value. Additionally, the coin's design features the image of Albert II, which makes it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of Austria and its rulers.
