Comment
Issuing authority: [Stadt, Württemberg]Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Pfennigs - Backnang ND (1918) coin is that it was issued during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1923), when the value of the German mark plummeted, and the prices of goods and services skyrocketed. As a result, the government was forced to produce smaller denomination coins, like the 10 Pfennigs, to keep up with the increasing demand for small change. Despite being made of iron, which was a less valuable metal than the traditional silver or gold, this coin still held significant value in the eyes of the people, and it remains a unique and interesting piece of history for collectors today.
