Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 25 Pfennigs - Ottmachau 1920 coin is that it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically during the 1920s. This coin, made of iron and weighing 5.1 grams, was a standard circulation coin during a period when the German economy was experiencing extreme inflation, which led to the devaluation of the German mark. This coin's value was relatively low compared to other coins issued during this time, but it remains an interesting piece of history for collectors and numismatists.
