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 1874, 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 a gold standard during this period.
