Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 25 Pfennigs - Eggenfelden 1921 coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924), when the value of the German mark dropped significantly due to excessive printing of money. As a result, many everyday items, like eggs, became extremely expensive, and the 25 Pfennigs coin was worth only a fraction of its face value. Despite this, the coin still holds historical significance and is a sought-after collector's item today.
