Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Pfennig - Landsberg an der Warthe ND coin is that it was made of iron, which was a common material used for coinage during that time period, but it's unusual for a coin of such low denomination. Most coins of this value were made of copper or bronze. The use of iron in the production of this coin may have been a cost-saving measure, but it also made the coin more prone to rust and corrosion.
