Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 20 Pfennigs - Tannhausen (Julian Websky) 1917 coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 2.4 g is that it features a unique design, showcasing a stylized eagle with outstretched wings, grasping a wreath in its talons. The eagle is surrounded by a circle of 20 Pfennigs, with the year 1917 displayed at the bottom. This design was created by Julian Websky, a German artist and engraver, who was known for his work on various coins and notgeld during this time period.
