Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Laufen ND (1918) coin is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany. The coin was issued in 1918, during the final year of World War I, and its production was likely impacted by the war effort. Additionally, the coin was minted in the District of Laufen, which was a part of the Federal state of Bavaria, and its design may have been influenced by the cultural and political climate of the region at the time.
