Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Eltmann (Vorschussverein) ND coin is that it was issued by a private organization, the Eltmann Vorschussverein, rather than a government or central bank. This makes it a unique example of a privately issued coin that was still recognized as legal tender in Germany during the time it was in circulation.
