One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Halberstadt ND coin is that it was issued during a time of economic crisis in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin was made of iron, which was a cheaper alternative to traditional metals like copper or silver, and it was designed to be easily identifiable and difficult to counterfeit. Despite its low value, the coin is now considered a rare and collectible item, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of dollars.
