Pfennig

From Freepedia

The pfennig was a small German coin valued at 1/100 of a Deutsche Mark and other German currencies with the name Mark.

The Deutschmark pfennig became obsolete with the introduction of euro coins and notes in 2002. Sometimes, however, the term is used in German to refer to the euro cent.

The pfennig was originally a small silver coin first produced during the Middle Ages.

Before 1945, when the German currency was still the RM (Reichs-Mark) there was a special sign for the pfennig: (U+20B0, decimal 8368).

The pfennig is 1/100 of Bosnia and Herzegovina's Convertible Mark.
