This is what the “Milch-Zentrale” looked like in the time of need during the First World War.
Interesting fact
The 1 Pfennig - Nürnberg (Milchzentrale) ND coin was part of a series of coins minted by the City of Nuremberg in the 1920s and 1930s to promote the city's milk industry. The coin features the image of a milkmaid and a cow on one side, and the Nuremberg Castle on the other. The coin was made of iron, which was a common material for coins at the time, and weighs 1.5 grams. Despite its small denomination, the coin is a rare and collectible item today, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of dollars.
