Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 25 Pfennigs - Peine ND (1918) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. To combat this issue, the government issued coins with lower denominations, such as the 25 Pfennigs, to help people purchase everyday items. Despite its low value, this coin is a unique piece of history that reflects the economic challenges faced by Germany during that time.
