It is distinguished by its classic round format and metallic appearance, in accordance with the \"metal\" keyword. The visible side features a perfectly legible embossed inscription: \"BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND\" encircling the value \"50\" and the word \"PFENNIG\" at the bottom. The graphics of the numbers and letters, typical of the second half of the 20th century, are clear and regular, with a beaded frieze along the edge of the flan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe coin's surface shows a matte grey patina, characteristic of a common alloy for this type of period currency. There are some slight signs of wear visible on the relief, mainly around the letters and the central number, which attests to prior use and natural aging. No major chips or deformation are apparent on this side. The edge is not visible in the photo, but the rim appears regular and well-preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe style of the inscription and the mention \"Bundesrepublik Deutschland\" clearly place this coin in the period after 1949, the date of the creation of the Federal Republic of Germany. The sober and functional aesthetic of the graphics is representative of German coinage from the second half of the 20th century. No date is visible on the exposed side; only the reverse might possibly feature one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe coin is placed in front of a decorative box of antique inspiration, which highlights its metallic reflections and texture. No other elements or decorative motifs appear on the visible side, which is consistent with the minimalist design of common German coins of that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
