Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Mark coin from the Grand Duchy of Baden is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was introduced in 1890, just a few years after the formation of the German Empire in 1871, and it was used as a standard circulation coin until 1901. During this time, Germany was undergoing rapid industrialization and urbanization, which led to an increased demand for currency. The 10 Mark coin was a significant denomination and was widely used in trade and commerce. It was made of gold (.900) and weighed 3.982 grams, making it a valuable and highly sought-after coin among collectors today.
