Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Mark coin from Anhalt-Dessau is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1896, just a few years before the formation of the German Empire in 1871, and it features an image of Frederick I, the last ruler of the House of Ascania and the first Duke of Anhalt-Dessau. The use of gold in the coin's composition also reflects the country's shift towards the gold standard during this period.
