Comment
A large number of period forgeries exist for this type. Interesting fact
The 50 Rentenpfennig coin from Germany (1871-1948) is interesting because it was issued during a time of hyperinflation in the country. In 1923, the inflation rate in Germany reached a staggering 200,000%, which led to the creation of this coin, which was worth 50 Rentenpfennig, a significant amount at the time. Despite its value, the coin was made of aluminum bronze, a relatively inexpensive material, due to the shortage of more valuable metals during this period. This coin serves as a reminder of the economic challenges faced by Germany in the early 20th century.
