Interesting fact
The 25 Pfennigs coin from Kißlegg im Allgäu (Federal state of Württemberg) made of Zinc weighing 3.2 g is interesting because it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of 1918-1923. During this time, the value of the German mark plummeted, and the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the increasing prices. This led to the creation of many different types of coins, including the 25 Pfennigs coin, which was made of zinc instead of the more traditional metal, silver. This coin is a tangible reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany during this time period.
