Interesting fact
The 50 Pfennigs - Stavenhagen ND (1922) coin was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the Hyperinflation of 1922-1923. During this period, the value of the German mark plummeted, and the government was forced to print more and more money to keep up with the increasing prices. As a result, many coins from this era, including the 50 Pfennigs - Stavenhagen ND (1922), were made of aluminum instead of more valuable metals like gold or silver. This was a cost-saving measure, as aluminum was much cheaper and more abundant than other metals at the time. Despite the economic challenges of the time, the 50 Pfennigs - Stavenhagen ND (1922) coin remains a valuable collector's item today, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of euros.
