Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Mark coin from the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg is that it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Germany. The coin was issued in 1874, just a few years after the formation of the German Empire in 1871, and it features an image of Grand Duke Peter II on one side and the German imperial eagle on the other. This coin is a unique example of the blending of local and national identities during this period of German history.
