Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Pfennig coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Copper weighing 2.03g is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany, known as the Weimar Republic. The coin was designed to be a new standardized currency for the country, but due to the economic struggles, the coin was not widely accepted and was eventually replaced by the Reichsmark in 1924. Despite its short-lived use, the Pattern 1 Pfennig remains a unique and collectible piece of German history.
