Jaeger N 12

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, specifically during the hyperinflation period of the early 1920s. The coin's value of 10 Mark was significant at the time, but due to the inflation, it quickly lost its value and became worthless. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable collector's item today, with some mint conditions selling for hundreds of euros.
