Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Pfennigs - Zell im Wiesental ND (1917) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's low denomination and zinc composition were a result of the economic constraints of the time, as the government struggled to produce coins with more valuable materials due to the inflationary pressures. Despite its low value, the coin remains a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
