Germany 1910-A 25 pfennig
This coin is a nickel twenty-five pfennig from a type issued 1909-12 from the Berlin (mintmark "A", shown here), Munich (mintmark "D"), Muldenhutten (mintmark "E"), Stuttgart (mintmark "F"), Karlsruhe (mintmark "G") and Hamburg (mintmark "J") mints. Under the German Empire of 1871-1918, the denominations of two mark and up were permitted for the formerly independent principalities while the lower denominations (one pfennig thru one mark) were minted to a unified design. The denomination superseded a copper-nickel twenty pfennig issued 1887-92 and, like the earlier coin, does not seem to have been a success. It is seldom seen compared to the other denominations of the time.
Recorded mintage: 9,522,000 (the most common date).
Specification: 4.10 g, nickel, 23 mm diameter.
