Interesting fact

The 5 Pfennigs - Mücheln (Anhaltische Kohlenwerke) ND coin from the City of Mücheln (Prussian province of Saxony) is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its historical significance and limited mintage. It was produced during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s, which saw the value of the German mark plummet significantly. As a result, the coin's value has increased over time, making it a sought-after collector's item.
