Interesting fact
The 2 Rentenpfennig coin from Germany (1871-1948) is interesting because it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in the country. In 1923, the value of the German mark had dropped to a fraction of its pre-World War I value, and the government was forced to introduce a new currency, the Rentenmark, to stabilize the economy. The 2 Rentenpfennig coin was part of this new currency system and was used for everyday transactions. Despite its low denomination, the coin is now a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mintage variations selling for thousands of euros.
