Interesting fact

The 50 Pfennigs - Stavenhagen ND (1922) coin was issued during a time of hyperinflation in Germany, specifically in the city of Stavenhagen. In 1922, the price of aluminum, the metal used to make the coin, increased significantly, making it difficult for the city to produce more coins. As a result, the city council decided to produce a limited number of coins with a unique design, which included the city's coat of arms and the year 1922. Today, this coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for thousands of dollars.
