Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Rentenpfennig coin from Germany (1871-1948) is that it was introduced in 1923 as a replacement for the previously used 1 Pfennig coin, and it was designed to combat inflation during the hyperinflation period in Germany following World War I. The coin's design featured a simple and straightforward layout, with the denomination "1 Rentenpfennig" on the obverse and the German eagle on the reverse. Additionally, the coin was made of bronze, which was a more affordable material than the previous silver coins, and it weighed only 2 grams, making it a more compact and portable option for everyday transactions.
