Comment
153.1B, 153.1C were by the issuing office through perforation demonetize and given to collectors.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Geiselhöring ND (1918) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924), when the value of the German mark plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. To combat this issue, the government introduced a new currency, the "Papiermark," which was backed by a gold reserve and had a more stable value. The 5 Pfennigs coin was part of this new currency system and was used widely in circulation during that time.
