Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Blankenstein ND coin was issued by the Municipality of Blankenstein in the Federal State of Reuss, and it features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of its time. The coin's obverse (front) side features a portrait of a young woman, believed to be Princess Adelheid Reuss, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. The reverse (back) side of the coin features a blank field, which was a deliberate design choice by the mint to make the coin easily distinguishable from other coins in circulation. This design element, combined with the coin's relatively low mintage, has made the 10 Pfennigs - Blankenstein ND a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
