Comment
Were issued in 1921 as an advertising savings mark by the savings bank.Interesting fact
The 50 Pfennigs Münsterberg ND (1921) coin was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically in the year 1921. At that time, the value of the German mark had decreased significantly, and the government had to issue new coins with lower denominations to keep up with the inflation. The 50 Pfennigs coin was one of the coins issued during this time, and it was made of aluminum, which was a relatively cheap material at the time. Despite its low value, the coin is now a rare collector's item and can be sold for a significant amount of money.
