Interesting fact
The 25 Pfennigs coin from Eschwege (Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau) made of Zinc weighing 2.9 g is interesting because it was minted during a time when the use of zinc in coinage was still a relatively new practice. Zinc was first introduced as a coinage metal in the early 19th century, and it was not widely used until the late 1800s. The fact that this coin was made of zinc suggests that it was likely minted in the late 19th or early 20th century, which makes it a interesting piece of numismatic history.
