Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
The 5 Pfennigs coin from Burghausen an der Salzach (Acetonfabrik) ND is a rare variation of the standard circulation coin, with only a limited number of coins minted. Its unique feature is the presence of a small "ND" mint mark, which stands for "Niedrig-Druck" or "low-pressure" in German. This mint mark indicates that the coin was minted using a special low-pressure process, which resulted in a slightly different finish and texture compared to the standard coins. As a result, the Burghausen 5 Pfennigs coin with the ND mint mark has become a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
