Interesting fact
The ½ Mark coin from Cammin (Prussian province of Pomerania) made of Zinc weighing 3.55g is interesting because it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of 1918-1923. The coin's value was worth significantly less than its face value due to the inflation, making it a unique piece of history.
