This was a common coin until Germany adopted the euro in 2002. At that time its value was about 1/2 of a US or euro cent.
Today it's of interest only to collectors and then only if it's in uncirculated condition. Most sell for about US$1 or so. Those with a G or J mint mark go for around $2.
One pfennig was to the German mark the way one cent is to the dollar. It's a common coin, worth maybe 10 cents.
That is the mintmark of the Munich mint on this German 50 pfennig.
The 1979 German 2 Pfennig is worth about 2 dollars depending on its condition. Some of these coins can be more valuable including the 5 Pfennig coin.
The 10 pfennig coin was first issued by the German Empire on 1873.
This was a common circulation coin in Germany up till the changeover to euros in 2002. At that time it was worth about a US nickel.
The 1 pfennig coin made in 1980 is a currency of the former German Democratic Republic (East Germany). It was part of the East German currency system, known as the Mark der DDR. The pfennig was a subunit of the Mark, with 100 pfennig equaling one Mark. After German reunification in 1990, the pfennig was phased out and replaced by the Deutsche Mark.

The value of a German 10 Pfennig coin from 1976 varies based on its condition and demand among collectors. Generally, in circulated condition, it is worth around 10 to 50 cents, while uncirculated examples might fetch a slightly higher price. It's best to check recent sales or consult a coin collector's guide for the most accurate valuation.
It is worth nothing. The Germans no long use the mark, but are on the Euro. When it was used a 50 pfennig was about 5 cents. One pfennig was a penny.

No. It was a 5 pfennig (not pfenning) coin, until the German currency was replaced by the Euro.
Not enough information. The pfennig (penny) was a unit of German money for well over 100 years. If its date is after the 1950s it's only worth a few cents, but if it's older it may or may not be valuable. Please post a new question with the coin's date and any other inscriptions.
