Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig - Eldagsen 1920 coin is that it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically during the 1920s. This coin, made of iron and weighing 1.5 grams, was worth only a fraction of a cent at the time, but its value increased significantly over the years due to its rarity and historical significance. Today, it is considered a valuable collector's item among numismatists.
