1996 F Germany 1 Pfennig Copper Plated Steel Coin
Condition: The coin appears to be in circulated condition with visible toning and minor surface marks. The copper plating remains largely intact, though there is some dark spotting and environmental wear consistent with age and handling. The strike type is a standard business strike. This 1 Pfennig coin was minted in Stuttgart (identified by the 'F' mint mark) and is composed of a steel core plated with copper. Historically, the Pfennig was a fractional denomination of the Deutsche Mark, which served as the official currency of West Germany and later reunited Germany until the introduction of the Euro. This specific issue features the traditional oak seedling on the obverse and the numeral '1' on the reverse. The grading is not professionally certified, but the details on the oak leaves and lettering remain clear.
