Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 50 Pfennigs - Wansen ND (1920) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the 1920s. The coin's iron composition was a result of the shortage of other metals, such as copper and silver, which were traditionally used in coin production. The use of iron in coinage was a common practice during this time, as it was a readily available and less expensive alternative. Despite its humble composition, the 50 Pfennigs - Wansen ND (1920) coin remains a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
