Interesting fact
The 20 Pfennigs - Neumünster ND coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1922, just a few years after the end of World War I and the fall of the German Empire. The Weimar Republic, which was established in 1919, was struggling to stabilize the German economy and combat inflation, which had risen to crisis levels. In response, the government introduced a new currency, the Rentenmark, which replaced the old Papiermark. The 20 Pfennigs - Neumünster ND coin was minted in Zinc, a relatively inexpensive metal, as a way to reduce the cost of production and keep inflation in check. Despite these efforts, the coin still holds significant historical value and is a sought-after collector's item today.
