Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 200,000 Mark coin from Hamburg, Germany (1923) is that it was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice of material for coins at that time. Aluminum was still a relatively new material in the early 20th century, and it was not commonly used for coins until later in the century. The use of aluminum for this coin may have been a cost-saving measure or a way to showcase the city's industrial capabilities.
