Germany 1914D 5 pfennig rev DLSR.jpg

This coin is a copper-nickel five pfennig struck at the Berlin (mintmark "A"), Munich (mintmark "D", shown here), 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. This type was struck 1890-1915 but wartime shortages forced the regime to convert the coin to iron in 1915-22.

Recorded mintage: 3,014,000, a common date.

Specification: 2.5 g, copper-nickel, 18 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM 11.
