Our word 'penny' comes from the Old German word 'pfennig'. First use of 'penny' in English, meaning 'small/little coin' originates early 9th. century. Interestingly, the (strictly) earliest English 'penny', as one-twelveth of a shilling, was first made of silver, then bronze, then only later, copper.
