Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Sandau an der Elbe 1918 coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark dropped significantly due to the country's involvement in World War I and the subsequent economic crisis. As a result, many different types of coins were issued with varying denominations and compositions, including this 50 Pfennigs coin made of iron, which was a cheaper alternative to traditional metals like silver or gold.
