Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Tannhausen (Julian Websky) 1917 coin from German notgeld (Germany) made of Zinc weighing 3.2 g is that it features a unique design, showcasing a stylized eagle with outstretched wings, holding a shield with the coat of arms of Tannhausen. This design was created by the artist Julian Websky and was used on several other coins from the same series. The eagle symbolizes strength, courage, and freedom, which were important values during the time of its creation.
