Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Ahrweiler (N. Mies) ND coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany. The coin was issued in the late 1920s, a period of hyperinflation in Germany, when the value of the German mark was rapidly decreasing. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local notgeld (emergency money) and foreign currencies, leading to a diverse range of coinage being issued by various cities and states across the country. The 5 Pfennigs - Ahrweiler (N. Mies) ND coin is a rare example of a coin issued during this time, and its iron composition was likely a result of the scarcity of other metals during this period.
