Interesting fact

The 20 Pfennigs coin from Nuremberg (Sprengstoff A.G.) ND is a rare coin that features an error in its design. The coin was minted with a mistake in the die, resulting in a misprinted image on the reverse side of the coin. Specifically, the image of the Nuremberg Castle is slightly offset, making it appear askew. This error has made the coin highly sought after by collectors, and it is considered a valuable addition to any collection of German coins.
