Interesting fact
The 5 Pfennigs - Trossingen (Ands Koch A.G.) ND coin was minted during a time when Germany was going through a period of hyperinflation. In the early 1920s, the German economy was struggling, and the value of the German mark was plummeting. To combat this, the government issued a new currency, the Rentenmark, which was pegged to gold and was intended to stabilize the economy. However, the 5 Pfennigs - Trossingen (Ands Koch A.G.) ND coin, which was minted in 1922, was not converted to the new currency and remained in circulation as a valid form of payment. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was minted during a time of economic upheaval and is a reminder of the economic challenges that Germany faced in the early 20th century.
