Interesting fact

The 10 Euro Grimm's Fairy Tales coin from the Federal Republic of Germany, issued in 2012, features a unique design that showcases the famous fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel". The coin's reverse side depicts a scene of the two siblings standing in front of a gingerbread house, made of delicious-looking candy and icing, while a wicked witch lurks in the background. This intricate design is a nod to the Brothers Grimm's original story and adds a touch of whimsy to the coin.
