Interesting fact
The 5 Pfennigs coin from Burghausen an der Salzach (Wacker Chemie) ND is made of iron, which is a relatively rare metal used in coin production. Iron is a strong and durable metal, but it can also be prone to rusting, which is why it's not commonly used in coinage. This makes the 5 Pfennigs coin a unique and interesting collector's item for numismatists.
