Comment
#52 in Friedrich Wielandt, Robert Greter-Stückelberger - "Die Münzen von Laufenburg und Rheinau", 1978Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the "Vierzipfliger" Pfennig coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin's issuance coincided with the rise of the Habsburg dynasty, which would go on to play a significant role in European history for centuries to come. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the coin is a tangible reminder of this pivotal period in history.
