Interesting fact

The Greppiner Werke, which is featured on the coin, was a large industrial complex in the town of Greppin, Germany (now part of the town of Bitterfeld-Wolfen). The complex was built in the late 19th century and produced a variety of goods, including textiles, machinery, and electrical equipment. The coin's design, which features a stylized image of the Greppiner Werke, serves as a reminder of the town's rich industrial heritage.
