Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Solingen 1919 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. The coin's iron composition was likely a result of the wartime economy and the scarcity of other metals.
