Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Augsburg (Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nürnberg) ND coin is that it was made of zinc, which is a relatively soft and corrosion-prone metal. This makes it unusual compared to other coins of the time, which were often made of more durable metals like copper or silver. Despite this, the coin has still managed to maintain its value and collectibility over time.
