Comment
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 25 Pfennigs - Haan 1917 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the early 1920s. The coin's low denomination and metal composition (zinc or nickel-plated) reflect the economic constraints of the time, as the government struggled to maintain the value of its currency. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable collector's item today, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of euros.
