Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Braubach (Blei- and Silberhütte) ND coin was minted during a time when the Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau was experiencing significant economic growth and industrialization. The coin's design, which features an image of a lead and silver smelter, reflects the region's rich history of mining and metallurgy. The use of zinc as the coin's material also highlights the region's strong industrial base, as zinc was a key component in the production of galvanized steel, which was a major export of the region at the time.
