Interesting fact
The 10 Pfennigs - Cassel 1919 coin from the City of Kassel (Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau) made of Iron weighing 5.1 g is interesting because it was produced during a time of economic turmoil in Germany, known as the "Inflationary Period" (1914-1924), when the value of the German mark dropped significantly, and the use of alternative materials like iron for coin production became necessary due to the shortage of more traditional metals like silver and gold.
