Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Pfennigs - Neuenbürg 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the inflation, leading to the creation of many different types of coins, including the 20 Pfennigs - Neuenbürg 1918, which was made of iron and had a relatively low denomination. Despite its low value, this coin is now a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
