Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1921, during a time of economic and political turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period". The coin's value, 10 Pfennigs or 1 Grosche, was a relatively small denomination, but it was still an important part of everyday transactions for the people of Koblenz and the surrounding region. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin's nickel plating and iron composition made it a durable and long-lasting piece of currency.
