The pfennig is a small coin and the minor unit of the German currency. Its value was 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 (Reichsmark) there was a special sign for the pfennig:
