Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Fulda 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923). During this time, the value of the German mark (the national currency) dropped significantly, leading to a period of hyperinflation. As a result, the 50 Pfennigs coin was one of the few coins that remained in circulation, as many other coins had become worthless due to inflation. Despite its low value, the coin remains a valuable collector's item today, serving as a reminder of Germany's economic history.
