Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Pfennigs coin from the Federal Republic of Germany (1950-1969) is that it was designed by the German artist and sculptor, Reinhart Heinsdorff. Heinsdorff's design features a stylized image of a wheat ear on the obverse (front) side of the coin, symbolizing fertility and prosperity. The reverse (back) side of the coin features the denomination "2 Pfennigs" and the year of minting. The coin was minted from 1950 to 1969, and it was made of bronze, weighing 3.25 grams.
