Interesting fact
The Pfennig coin from the City of Cottbus (German States) made of Copper is interesting because it was issued during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just begun, and the coinage of many German states was being debased to help finance the war effort. Despite this, the Cottbus Pfennig remained a stable and reliable currency, and its copper content made it a valuable commodity in trade.
