Interesting find !!
Your mint mark appears to be "D" (Munich) as in this coin wherein the mark appears at the based of the eagle:

Germany used A for Berlin, D for Munich, E for Muldenhutten, F for Stuttgart, G for Karlsruhe and J for Hamburg.
Don.....
 
I didn't even see mint mark but with farther inspection it is a J mint mark. Thanks for the info
 
Very nice condition for a copper alloy coin. Ours here are mostly scrap. Try to get a silver 10 Pfennig!
 
Westfront , I thought finding a German coin of this age in south east Missouri was odd enough..... not anything like what I expected from this site. If it would have been silver too that would have been the cats meow....but nun the less a cool find.

Cool find for sure! My thinking was if there is a 5 Pfennig a 10 Pfennig is not far away. I did not wonder any more where and what coins turn up. :occasion14:
 
Hey BIGRED when I saw the post I though what language is that ! , ha ha !! I found one just like it last year .... cool find !
