Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Pfennigs - Calw 1920 coin is that it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically in the year 1920. The coin's value was equivalent to 1/50th of a US dollar at the time, and it was made of iron due to the shortage of other metals during World War I. Despite its low value, the coin remains a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
