Interesting fact
The 50 Pfennigs coin from Nuremberg (Federal state of Bavaria) features a unique design on its reverse side. It depicts a stylized image of the Nuremberg Castle, which is a medieval castle that was built in the 11th century and has been a prominent landmark in the city for centuries. The castle is surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves, which is a symbol of strength and durability. This design was created by the artist Wilhelm Gevekoht and was used on several other coins issued by the City of Nuremberg.
