5 Pfennigs - Düsseldorf (M.-Fabr. Rheinland A.G.) ND

The 5 Pfennigs coin from Düsseldorf was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. At that time, the value of the German mark was rapidly decreasing, and the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the increasing prices. As a result, many Germans turned to alternative forms of currency, such as local currencies like the Düsseldorf 5 Pfennigs coin, which was backed by the city's credit and was seen as a more stable store of value. This coin is a tangible reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany during that time period.
