#27 in Friedrich Wielandt, Robert Greter-Stückelberger - "Die Münzen von Laufenburg und Rheinau", 1978Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Vierzipfliger Löwenpfennig" coin is that it features a unique design element - a lion with four tails. This distinctive feature was a symbol of the Habsburg-Laufenburg family, who ruled over the region of Aargau in Switzerland during the 14th century. The coin's design was meant to showcase the family's power and influence, and it has become a recognizable hallmark of this particular coin.
