Comment
Issuing authority: [Stadt, Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt]Interesting fact
The 5 Pfennigs - Frankenhausen ND coin from the City of Frankenhausen (Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt) is interesting because it was minted during a time when the Federal State of Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt was still an independent state within the German Empire. It was minted in 1905, just a few years before the state was abolished and merged with other states to form the state of Thuringia in 1920. This coin is a small piece of history that represents a unique time and place in Germany's past.
