Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Mark coin from the Kingdom of Württemberg is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1872, just a few years after the formation of the German Empire, and it features an image of King Charles I on one side and the coat of arms of Württemberg on the other. The use of gold in the coin's composition also reflects the country's shift towards the gold standard during this period.
