The 20 pfennig coin was a notgeld coin issued by the Free State of Saxony in 1921, during the hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic.
The coin is composed of brown porcelain and measures 20 millimeters in diameter and 3 millimeters in thickness. A sickle is superimposed over two crossing ears of wheat in the center of the obverse. Above these items is the year of issue (1921), and below them is the logo of the Staatliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Meissen GmbH, which consists of two crossing swords. The coin's value is inscribed as "25 PF." in the middle of the reverse, and is accompanied by the title "SACHSEN" (the German name for Saxony).
