Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 50 Milliarden - Heilbronn 1923 from City of Heilbronn (notgeld) (Federal state of Württemberg) made of Nickel silver weighing 15.6 g is that it was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's high denomination of 50 Milliarden (50 billion) marks reflects the extreme inflation that occurred during this time, when the value of the German mark plummeted and prices skyrocketed. This coin is a tangible reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany in the aftermath of World War I.
