Comment
Menzel: EEEInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Mark coin from Münsterberg (Lower Silesia) is that it was made of porcelain, which is a unique material for coins. Most coins are made of metals like silver, gold, or copper, but the use of porcelain for this coin gives it a distinctive look and feel. This choice of material may have been influenced by the region's history of porcelain production, as Lower Silesia was known for its porcelain manufacturing industry in the 18th and 19th centuries. The use of porcelain for the coin may have been a way to showcase the region's craftsmanship and cultural heritage.
