Interesting fact
The 5 Pfennigs - Crailsheim 1917 coin from the City of Crailsheim (Federal state of Württemberg) made of Zinc weighing 1.6 g is interesting because it was produced during a time of war, specifically World War I, and its design reflects the economic and political climate of the time. The coin features a simple and utilitarian design, with the denomination "5 Pfennigs" on one side and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other, symbolizing the state's involvement in the war effort. The use of zinc as the material for the coin was also a result of the war, as other metals like copper and silver were in short supply. This coin is a small but significant piece of history that provides insight into the economic and political conditions of Germany during World War I.
