Interesting fact
The 2 Pfennigs - Hamburg (Produktion) ND coin was minted in the City of Hamburg (Federal state of Hamburg) and is made of zinc, which is a relatively rare metal for coins. Zinc is a bluish-white metal that is often used in the production of galvanized steel, brass, and other alloys. It's interesting to note that the use of zinc in coins can help to reduce the cost of production, as it is less expensive than other metals like copper or silver.
