Interesting fact

The Pattern 50 Pfennigs coin from Germany (1871-1948) made of Aluminium weighing 1.66g is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's design, which features a woman holding a shield and a sword, symbolizes the country's determination to defend its economy and stability during that time.
