Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Pfennigs - Neustadt an der Haardt 1917 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 was rapidly decreasing due to excessive printing of money to finance World War I and other economic factors. As a result, many cities and towns, including Neustadt an der Haardt, issued their own emergency currency, like this coin, to address the shortage of small change and stabilize local commerce.
