JNDUSTRIE is an old form of INDUSTRIE (industry)Interesting fact
The 2 Pfennigs - Barmen (Textil-Industrie A.G.) ND coin from the City of Barmen (Prussian province of Rhine) made of Zinc weighing 1.58 g is interesting because it was produced during a time when Germany was experiencing significant economic and political changes. The coin was minted in the late 19th century, a period of rapid industrialization and urbanization in Germany, and it features an image of a textile mill, which was a prominent industry in the region at the time. The coin's design and composition also reflect the country's shift towards more modern and standardized currency.
