Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Briesen 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany. The country was experiencing hyperinflation, and the value of the German mark had dropped significantly. As a result, many merchants and traders began to use foreign currencies, like the US dollar, instead of the German mark. Despite this, the 5 Pfennigs coin remained in circulation and was a widely used denomination during this time.
