Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 25 Pfennigs - Regenwalde ND (1918) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's iron composition was a result of the wartime economy and the lack of available metals, and it was one of the few coins that were produced during this time that did not have a portrait of a king or emperor. Instead, it features the image of a mythical creature, the "Regenwalde Lion," which was a symbol of the city of Regenwalde. This coin is now a rare collector's item and is considered a unique piece of German numismatic history.
